Blast from the past. This week, 2009: #SriLanka incredibly lost their first five wickets for just six runs - an ODI record - in a tri-series final. Do you remember what happened next? https://t.co/bb4dF05DkJ #SLvZim #FlashbackFriday #ODI #Dhaka #BPL

Ahsan-ul-Haq played cricket for @HampsteadCC from 1900 to 1902 and briefly appeared for @Middlesex_CCC before he qualified as a barrister and returned to India. 22 years later, he scored what is still the 2nd fastest century in first-class history https://t.co/0EkdS5XQR4

It's a scrapping of the Super League it seems, before we can assess the inaugural edition.

Blast from the past: With @CricketNamibia1 set to face off against New Zealand tomorrow, here is a rewind to 2005, when the #Eagles gave the Black Caps a run for their money in Windhoek. https://t.co/pbO05P9JpD #Namibia #EaglesPride 🇳🇦 🦅 #AlwaysHigher @NamU19CWC #T20WorldCup

A very happy birthday to the amazing Eileen Ash who turns 110 today. She made her England Test debut in 1937 and played seven Tests, the last in 1949. She worked for MI6 and rang the bell at Lord's before the 2017 Women's World Cup final

Incredible moment for Namibia - country with five cricket pitches who have now won their first game in the Super 12s.

Have such a clear gameplan and role clarity.

Vincent Valentine played for the West Indies in 1933 but is another pre-war cricketer who is largely forgotten. However, from a family scandal in 1930 to his peak against Yorkshire in 1936, he is a much more interesting character than his figures suggest https://t.co/9Ov225Vatg

Nigeria's Peter Aho bowled his way into the record books last Sunday with the best ever bowling figures in men's T20I history. A commendable feat indeed: https://t.co/RBG6nkL6oH @cricket_nigeria @CCCLeague #T20WorldCup #Nigeria 🇳🇬 #Lagos #SierraLeone #T20

.@brasil_cricket pull off one of the most extraordinary wins I've ever seen, right up there with Nepal's Miracle at Windhoek. Canada need 3 to win off final over with 5 wickets in hand. Dot, runout, then hat-trick by Laura Cardoso. 1 + runout off final ball. Brazil win by 1 run.
