I am so happy today as I met a great legend of cricket Mr Nasser Hussain sir. I have learned so much from his life and cricket stories that he mentioned with us in his inspiring speech and thank you very much Dez Derry sir for giving me the opportunity to meet such legend🫡🙏😊

An Afghan refugee - who starred in Freddie Flintoff’s TV show 'Field of Dreams' - has taken a huge step forward to his dream of playing professional cricket. 19-year old Adnan Miakhel spoke to #BBCBreakfast in 2022 - and three years on Paddy Gearey watched his debut for Lancashire’s second team bbc.co.uk/sport/cricket/team…

Do young men need more positive role models? Adnan Miakhel from Freddie Flintoff's Field of Dreams documentary talked about the former cricketer's influence on him. Listen on BBC Sounds: bbc.in/41Z9K2B

Please spare a thought today for the women of Afghanistan. While the men rejoice and revel in cricketing success, the women cannot go to secondary school or university, have a job, go swimming, visit a gym, walk in a park, or play cricket. Remember them. #CWC23
