Don't let the last couple of weeks deter from the fact that #BenStokes is and was an absolutely phenomenal cricketer.
Was the best player in the world between 2019 and 2022 winning World Cups in both short formats along with smashing the Aussies.
An absolute legend.
@PaulDennett_ So Stokes announces retirement during test match, as he told team before start of play guessing he was trying to get a positive reaction. PA announcing it as players walked off for tea was ridiculous
#ask George @GeorgeDobell1@huwzat Interesting article in @TheCricketerMag concerning ECB finances. As a volunteer for 2019 World Cup we were told the £££ income went to ICC with grounds paid to host and take any concessionary fees.
🚨🚨 ANOTHER PROTEST - CHARLES AND THE ROYALS have been told that it's time to 'Stop the Reign' directly under the balcony of Buckingham Palace. Support for the royals is collapsing. They can't keep dodging accountability. #NotMyKing#AbolishTheMonarchy#Epstein
#AskGeorge@GeorgeDobell1@huwzat given the amount of wickets falling on day 2, if this was a county game would Middlesex be expecting a points deduction or sanction. If so what do ICC now do??
@PaulDennett_ Oh well it was looking good an hour or go but loosing Root/Brook/Stokes for handful of runs means we could be over and done within 3 days. Only way this goes to day 4 is if there's rain tomorrow
@huwzat@GeorgeDobell1 I know Bethell/Gay are playing &missing and fighting hard on a difficult surface against good bowling. But good to see them digging in, yes they've been lucky but hopefully not throwing wicket away.
@iaincartergolf As painfully as it maybe we need Eddie to explain what happened on 17th in both rounds. Also guessing that like me many many people are no longer interested in the event.
