An absorbing 5 day Test, and an emotional win for SA. What a journey Simon Harmer has been on in particular. Australia’s batting continues to be vulnerable. Much to address for them, as SA take top spot in the rankings. Hope the whole country celebrates with them #SAvAus
We pick up here on the theory that tri-series are more absorbing than playing the same team over 5-7 matches. 🎧 📱 👇🏼
🌹Could Jimmy Anderson's legendary career be over after his Lancashire release?
🏴 Tammy Beaumont lifts the lid on life after international cricket retirement
🏏 Can tri-series' save ODI cricket, or is a bigger shake-up needed?

Have we just been seduced by a couple of jaw dropping victories by Sri Lanka & Pakistan, or is it time for more ODI tri-series, like yesteryear? Somehow it all feels a bit more interesting #PAKvENG
Simply sensation from Shadab. Haris a hero for Pakistan too. England crushed - again. #PakvEng
DRS saves the day - for the moment - wow. Shadab had no idea he hit it! Any other circumstance other than last wicket he would have walked with no review. #PakvEng
Staggering stuff from Harry Brook - what have we just seen?! Fastest EVER double hundred in ODIs that’s what. Array of shots out of this world 🤯🤩
Anyone who witnessed Temba Bavuma’s first Test century will remember the wave of emotion around Newlands. By his fifth, a career best, he’s a leader by name as well as deed. Loved this in depth chat with him just before SA became World Test Champions: youtu.be/U3BCRtIb2sY?is=3xdq…

A little thing on bad light and the pink ball… Something I’ve been saying for a while. Full reel 👉🏼 instagram.com/reel/DeZi_KGKT…
You always hope players do well. Cummins cites Nic Maddinson as having “shown good form” but not a huge body of work behind a player whose last FC game was March 2025 due to having chemo. A story of recovery & resilience, and now a first Test for him since 2016. #SAvAus

Fantastic start to HuntFamilyFund.com 120 mile walk to Bournmouth. Thank you all so much for incredible support xx
Just a reflection on the end of the Northants game yesterday…. Pink ball.
Would put an end to all issues of bad light stopping play. Would players not all eventually adapt?
