What is USA’s obsession with bowling Aaron Jones???

1. One ball only 2. 3 fielders for batting powerplay 3. 5 fielders from overs 11-50
Time to bring bowlers back into the contest in ODIs? es.pn/3uFZxZ5

By the way, I love the fact that England Cricket puts the highlight package on YouTube. There must always be a way to consume some amount of cricket for free (even if it’s not Live). I honestly feel that it’s beneficial in the long-run for all parties involved. – at Venice, Veneto

Andries Gous & Harmeet Singh prob next for me, thought current top order and left arm spinners are doing well. A fast bowling allrounder who can bat at 5/6 like Hammad is something missing in usa, as well as a quality legspinning allrounder like Zia.

Good Morning all, and welcome back to me slagging off the ICC's half-arsed streaming of the #T20WCQualifier. I've pointed out before that the ICC's budget for pathway events in general and this qualifier in particular has been gutted, but that's not the only porblem.

Consecutive 100s. Unbelievable batting
Usually I’m preoccupied watching the Bay Area teams, but whenever @Gousie08 is batting, I immediately put on the Thunderbolts game. @MiLCricket #seattlethunderbolts #socallashings

Andries Gous will be Western Conference MVP this year- my prediction @PeterDellaPenna @MiLCricket

Can we get rid of batting powerplay in T20 cricket? Or at least make it 3/4 fielders.

Great century here from Monank Patel @MonankPatel3 Hopefully Sushant can follow him up with a big 100 as well.
Might be both Mitchell & Blundell’s best innings of their test career so far. Great partnership

Considered extinct, like our volcanoes in the Westfjords, today we have witnessed the re-emergence of an ancient phenomenon, the fifty-run opening stand for England!
