    *Official* England Tour of Sri Lanka 2018

    Did I hear right, there's a reserve day available? Didn't think they ever did that any more. How come there wasn't one for the first match?

    *Official* 'The Big One 2' - Zimbabwe Tour of South Africa 2018

    Oh well … as I said, 130 would have been a fun chase to watch. Hard to see them even getting that now.

    *Official* 'The Big One 2' - Zimbabwe Tour of South Africa 2018

    199 to get then … obvs Zimbabwe would have settled for that at the start of the day - Masakadza was talking in terms of keeping them to around 260 - but it feels like an opportunity missed. They need to bat a lot better than they did the other day.

    And Steyn picks off two fours to go to his highest ODI score.

    *Official* 'The Big One 2' - Zimbabwe Tour of South Africa 2018

    50 partnership - and I'm starting to think Zimbabwe aren't going to register only their third win against their neighbours (and the first since Feb 2000), Shame, would have loved to see them chasing 130. But 200 is starting to look on now.

    **Official** County Cricket 2018

    Plenty of high-profile retirements this year - we've heard a lot about Trott, Colly, Foster etc but anyone know about Carberry, Compton or Batty? Looked as if Compo was just hanging on for his benefit and I doubt if Batty would want another season without a single CC game. Carbs would be looking...

    **Official** County Cricket 2017

    Certainly not Mitchell - I haven't heard this one before. No objection to women commentators at all but these two aren't very good frankly. Anyway I found out who the armbands are for, local club cricketer Mark Collin: Surrey Cricket Club to pay special tribute to Mark Collin at The Oval during...

    Question 2: (also asked on FB but no reply) - anyone know why the Surrey players are wearing black armbands? Just had a scroll down the Cricinfo 'England' section - they don't seem to have one for each county anymore - and can't see that any old Surrey players have succumbed recently.

    At least Surrey are defending 204, but currently being put to the sword by Warwickshire's, I mean Birmingham's openers. Listening to 5X, we have two women on commentary for some reason. Anyone know who the posh totty is? Sounds a bit like Lucy Worsley.

    Never mind all that - seems to be my Sky Sports/Virgin media playing up (not for the first time) ... got live action now. Derby 65-2 chasing 163.

    **Official** County Cricket 2017

    Something very strange going on this evening ... Sky Sports showing the Derby - Durham game - seem to be about 90 minutes or so behind actual time and still on the Durham innings despite Cricinfo telling us that Derbys have already started their reply. May be due to the women's game over-running...

    Pleased to see some live cricket on Sky given that it's been tipping down here for about six hours. First time I've seen Billy Root in action - if he and Joe ever bat together I guess it won't be hard to tell them apart.
