🚨RUMOUR: It has been reported that the 2026 Fife Flyers Valentine's Jerseys will only be worn during the warm-ups, as "happily single" Logan Neilson objects to wearing his Valentines Jersey for the game. (Via HockeyWatchUK)

How many more drivers have to die at Raidillon before they do something about it? Yes, it is an organic, exciting racing circuit. No, we can't continue to justify it. RIP Dilano van t' Hoff

England's toughest test was against Nortje, Rabada and Jansen and they won that series without playing like this. Still think SA take that series with one form batter, but Stokes' ton in Manchester which turned the series was secured through graft. This is silly. #Ashes
They will say they've played *this* way since the start of last summer, but that's bollocks and should be treated as such #Ashes

I haven't read the article, but I think it is because he scores more runs in the first innings than in the second...

Did Lauren Bell just shake @katecross16 hand to 'congratulate' her own her century?! 😆

Is it over pessimistic to say that I don't much fancy England's chances batting today? The pitch seemed to have increasingly variable bounce as yesterday went on, and it looks like there will be much more cloud cover today. Hmm. #WomensAshes

Once Ecclestone came on in the 12th over, she bowled 31 of 34 available overs until the new ball was taken in the 81st over. She bowled unchanged from the 25th over until the new ball.
Is it really fair to a) overbowl Ecclestone and b) only ever bring Dunkley on to bowl in international cricket in this type of situation, while not letting her do it the rest of the time?

Odd big drops of rain at the Radcliffe Road end... #womensashes

I could have done without today's job in Devon becoming a nightmare. I've got to drive up to Nottingham for the WAshes after this!

So at the Penske-owned track, in the Penske-owned series, they decided to have a unusual one-lap shootout which let the Penske car pass a rival? IndyCar doesn't know the meaning of conflict of interest 😂 #Indy500 #SkyIndyCar

The Ocon pit lane thing was more exciting than this entire race

Given it can't be long before I get the call, I'm just putting it out there that I'm not willing to host MOTD this weekend.

Looks like SA were light a couple of world-class batters. Would have been especially useful if one of them had the capability to be a partnership-breaking leggie too...

South Africa are going to be without two of their all-time greats, aged 29 and 30, at a home World Cup because of idiotically inflexible fitness standards that actually have little to do with cricketing demands. espncricinfo.com/story/van-n…

And the Wyvern should be running for cover. Delighted that ⁦@SomersetCCC⁩’s Stumpy the Dragon will be there for the unveiling and hopeful this will finally disabuse ⁦@SomersetCCC⁩ of the ridiculous notion that their symbol is anything other than a dragon! ⁦

Counterpoint: It’s ceding control of the game to the tiny minority who would react with aggression and/or violence to a dismissal they wrongly perceive as unfair.
This seems sensible and logical!

Bowlers side. What is it that a batter complains to a bowler about after being run out at the non strikers end? Are they apologizing for their negligence? Why abuse the bowler when the batter is taking liberties or being negligent?
