    Cricket stuff that doesn't deserve its own thread

    The only question is how to communicate to shipping navigators that there's a left hander on strike

    Cricket stuff that doesn't deserve its own thread

    I love it 'caught hooking to German bight' 'a lovely lofted drive through Trafalgar' 'they need to put in some more Hebrides'

    Was Dan Vettori better than the stats suggest

    Of the left arm spinning allrounders who led a somewhat struggling national cricket team in the early 2010s, he was easily one of the top two.

    Group A - Germany, Scotland, Hungary, Switzerland

    The Norwegians probably being the only serious contender to Scotland's likely title of least achievement for what should be a capable footballing nation. One Euros appearance ever and three world cup qualifications, the last 16 at 1998 their best. Streaks ahead of the competition in the women's...

    Road to Euro 2024

    England leading the slightly trimmed 24-team field, which suggests four realistic competitors. I agree with the jump after the top 5, but not really the order of the top two. Probaly quite kind to Georgia to not single them out among the minnows, but the casual 500/1 is probably more along...

    Football stuff that doesn't deserve its own thread

    If football execs want players not to place bets they could probably start by not having every square inch of stadium space crammed with bookies adverts. Like, at least have the slightest veneer of a gesture of being anti-gambling in any way. Might not be too much to ask. As it is they are...

    A year ago Crawley's median test score was 11, in his last 16 innings his minimum score is 11.

    A comparison of Test bowlers with 300 wickets

    Career average is still a pretty weak measure so using it still doesn't produce great comparative results. This is a way of making a good point about a handful of specific players though.

    Hawkeye founder on 'umpires call' debate

    The idea the umpire's call region was ever anything to do with the accuracy of Hawkeye has only ever been a myth. And quite an obvious one if you think for a moment about how Hawkeye could possibly work. Some of us have been calling it out for near a decade (which I'll provide a link to as...

    That explains an observation (England had a batting issue) and not at all why you posted about Jaiswal.
