England’s latest red-ball reset has gotten off to a flying start with England skittling New Zealand at Lords. Having lost the toss and been put into the field by the Black Caps on what looked like a good day for batting day, it did not take long for Jimmy Anderson to make an impact on […]

Jim Smith - Dec 31, 2017

There was not very much in it for the bowlers in the Chattogram Test and not for the first time.

Pakistan star Shaheen Shah Afridi in County Championship action.
Jim Smith - Dec 31, 2017

One of the chief criticisms levelled at the County Championship in recent years is that it fails to prepare English batters for Test cricket.
