I just lost my cricket ground (and perhaps club) because of @HSBC_UK selling their land.

New Beckenham had five senior teams, but more importantly a huge vibrant growing junior section for cricket. Now it��s homeless so Crystal Palace can own even more of the local area for professional footballers to train

London has always been one of the homes of cricket. But too often teams play on terrible facilities because the good ones are disappearing.

The New Beckenham pitch was a high quality square, the club might find other facilities. But it won’t be of this quality. And that’s if they find somewhere.

It feels every year there is less space for cricket in London. Not sure the Hundred is going to fix that. Professional cricket is great, but cricket needs everyone.

I hope Rugby players, especially black rugby players, know how much uZizi truly loved them. He lived to tell, and amplify, their stories. And, he did so with aplomb.

He adored this Sport. What a loss!

After the apocalypse, all that'll be left will be 23 blokes in green and gold.

These Boks are made of adamantium. How do they do it? Who cares.

Pieter-Steph du Toit looks like Stallone at the end of a Rocky movie. But Deon Fourie... ridiculous. Just ridiculous.

I asked my audience: "What is the best sports book you've ever read?" — and received more than 1,000 responses.

Here are the Top 10 👇

1) Open, an autobiography by Andre Agassi.

Everyone needs to read this, seriously.

We are devastated to hear so many traumatised NHS staff saying that they will quit the NHS once the pandemic is through.

We cannot afford to lose a single member of staff.

We must look after NHS staff NOW or we risk losing them forever.

Please RT if you agree.
