They say you can't get your life back. That's rubbish. Having come back from Montenegro, I gained an hour and then the clocks went back. That's two whole hours. I could watch England bowl 22 overs during that!

The end for Hastings ... Sussex played Middlesex in the Sunday League on August 20th 1989 in between the first and second days of the counties' Championship game. It was Sussex's last game on the historic ground

Well done Australia on winning an enthralling Test match. The best blokes in the world when they're winning.

Jack Rudoni. What a pleasure to have a footballer give an interview full of character. Dedicated the goal to his grandmother too. Respect.

Hazlewood is absolutely class. 300 plus Test wickets at 24. Not sure too many Australians have a middle name of Reginald though.

Renshaw, with his moustache, looking like someone from Middlesbrough in the 80s. A man who worked in the chemical works on the banks of the Tees all week, giving away fans a torrid time at Ayresome Pk at the wkend before Saturday night involved a fight in Redcar and a parmo.

The protestors are threatening people who go near the stadiums and they are trying to shut down the football too. They sold 8000 tickets for this and no one turned up to give you a sense of the danger. I can't even leave my building and the US gov has issued a warning

Sadly, still a few more in today but the people of Durban just don't seem to like Test cricket. Maybe 800 at most. Either that or they work very hard. I find it bizarre.
