How the England fielding coach’s wife’s sparkly jacket and a lot of hard work helped England turn around their fielding woes… bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/arti…
There remains a chasm between how England and Durham are describing the Ben Stokes situation.
Durham’s CEO says he is “bemused” by doubts around Stokes’ “state of mind”.
“He’s absolutely fine.” bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/arti…
England effectively 99-1 in their second innings at lunch on day two. Remarkably, an identical situation to Perth. Now, what have you learned?
And now Emilio Gay becomes the first centurion of the 2026 County Championship season. He's got there from 111 balls. Played nicely.
Tidy and timely fifty for Emilio Gay for Durham against Kent. He was with the Lions in the winter and could be the first to make his move when it comes to pushing his England case on day one of the season #bbccricket

Ben Stokes’ freak injury in the nets has caused disruption. He would have played for Durham next week but is now not expected to feature until the last two Championship rounds in May. bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/arti…

Scrolled back through some of our old messages after watching this. Turns out Jack knew all along.
Lovely from Isidor and the club. #SAFC
“Dear Sunderland, I wanted to write to you about my mate Jack.”
When @SunderlandAFC’s Wilson Isidor read Jack’s story, he felt compelled to visit his Mum, Jackie.
What followed will remain with them forever ❤️
A belated plug for my chat with Sonny Baker. If there’s a correlation between words spoken and wickets taken, he’s on to a winner… #bbccricket bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/arti…

Very impressive from Thomas Rew. His 73-ball ton against India U19s has been sensational and is England's fastest in Youth ODIs.
14-year-old Vaibhav Suryavanshi made an impressive 45 earlier but Rew making India's 290 look well below par at Northampton. #bbccricket
