8 Days A Week: Diary of a Professional Cricketer

[Jonathan Agnew 1988 @8DaysAggers]

Just off out to dinner with Robin Askwith. Yes, that Robin Askwith! #Confessions

However,my mate @GFoxyFowler started 1988 with a duck.His thigh pad is still in Jamaica apparently so he borrowed @ChrisBroad3's #riotshield

Disappointing day today. Got a wkt- Tim Robinson- but we got ripped apart by their seamers. Franklyn Stephenson bowled bloody fast.

New digital scoreboard was unveiled at @HomeOfCricket yesterday but with a whole line of arabic graphics. Apparently it had got wet! #rain

[Jonathan Agnew 1988 @8DaysAggers]

Fred Titmus totally ignored me as usual yesterday as he has been since 1978. #selector

[Jonathan Agnew 1988 @8DaysAggers]

...another 100 wickets? An @ECB_cricket recall? Will it be my last year of pro cricket? But tomorrow it's @HomeOfCricket for the MCC v Notts

[Jonathan Agnew 1988 @8DaysAggers]

Playing cricket is what I do best,yet a couple of months ago I felt like a journalist.It's all so complicated.What will this season bring...

[Jonathan Agnew 1988 @8DaysAggers]

Great competition out in the middle between young Lewis and @cricketdaffy and it was definitely Lewis that won today's battle. #foxes

[Jonathan Agnew 1988 @8DaysAggers]

First day out in the middle yesterday. Best bowler by miles was young lad by the name of Chris Lewis-reckon he'll go a long way in the game.

Nets are becoming a pain in the rear. Batsmen playing outrageous shots and bowlers larking around. Refused to bowl to Peter Such. #bored

Great night at the @WisdenAlmanack awards. Sat next to Sir Gubby Allen- got him to sign my complimentary copy of Wisden! #legend

[Jonathan Agnew 1988 @8DaysAggers]

@Paulnico199 Thanks for the follow. Keep following for all the latest from Grace Road during the 1988 season!

[Jonathan Agnew 1988 @8DaysAggers]

Tonight is the 1988 @WisdenAlmanack awards at the East India Club in St. James' Square. Can't wait! #bignight #cricketerofyear

[Jonathan Agnew 1988 @8DaysAggers]

Some @leicsccc players are keen on getting a 'This is Anfield' type of sign at Grace Road. I say 'no' but @cricketdaffy says 'yes' #fortress

[Jonathan Agnew 1988 @8DaysAggers]

I am one of the five @WisdenAlmanack Cricketers of the Year alongside Neil Foster, Peter Roebuck, David Hughes & Salim Malik #winners #1988

[Jonathan Agnew 1988 @8DaysAggers]

Only ten days until the MCC v Notts. Getting worried- have rarely bowled well at @HomeOfCricket #MCCvNotts

[Jonathan Agnew 1988 @8DaysAggers]

Heater on full blast in the car for the trip to @leicsccc - it's absolutely Baltic!

[Jonathan Agnew 1988 @8DaysAggers]

Hours and hours on indoor nets today- my first ball hit the side netting. Definitely not in the @GeoffreyBoycott Corridor of Uncertainty!

[Jonathan Agnew 1988 @8DaysAggers]

Turns out a couple of the new boys let off a fire extinguisher at the Farringford- they owe @DavidGower7 27 Greenbacks asap #foamgate

[Jonathan Agnew 1988 @8DaysAggers]

Shocking day yesterday! Took five and a half hours to get back to #Leicester AND we almost missed the ferry! Team Agnew- last car on!!
