Cricket has lost the role it had in 1939 but it’s still far more than a game 🔗 — Excerpt: Sport means nothing if it is not about passion and connection and nowhere is that more sharply defined than in football, as we have witnessed since coronavirus ripped it from our lives in recent weeks and days.

Australia certainly dominated the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup Final to win their fifth title. Not as competitive a match as their game with India earlier in the tournament suggested it would be, but impressive to watch. 🏏

Watching the 3rd T20I 🏏 between South Africa and England, the final and decisive T20 match of England’s tour of South Africa. I have really enjoyed this series, the Test matches, ODIs and T20 games have all been competitive and entertaining to follow, both on TV and radio (unexpectedly because coverage was on TalkSport rather than BBC TMS).

England beat New Zealand in the 4th T20 match to level the series 2-2. Good to see an outstanding performance from England after a couple of defeats. Deciding match is at Eden Park, Auckland on Sunday - but from what I’ve heard the weather forecast is not good :( 🏏

Evening T20 match in New Zealand means that at least I’m up early enough in the UK to see half the match. NZ chasing England’s 241-3 have got their work cut out for them - they started scoring well but have just lost 4 wickets in the last 20 minutes… 🏏

England win the ICC Cricket World Cup final. Unbelievable and dramatic game of cricket - I’ve been glued to it all day. So pleased that England won, but it was such a close, hard fought game that neither side really deserved to lose. A great end to the tournament. 🏏
