As the 2023 Rugby France World Cup has begun, I remembered that I was impressed by the article Andy Bull wrote for The Guardian about the 2019 Japan tournament. I read it again and translated it to Japanese. (2/2)

A serious topic this week with Alix Popham Sam Peters Andy Bull Dr Izzy Moore and Richard Boardman - Rylands Law

All of us remember Norm Hadley with fondness. We barely knew the half of it. An outstanding, painstakingly researched piece by Andy Bull

Tom Holland @jonathanliew It’s Andy Bull

As I ease myself into my chair with a sigh, this piece by Andy Bull gets it right. White-ball cricket for action-packed moments; red-ball cricket for a lifetime of memories. There’s room for both formats, but only one of them is trying to overwhelm the other through greed.

Wisden Almanack Lord's Cricket Ground Andy Bull Health for XR Parents For Future UK Alastair Marsh 🇺🇦 Justin Rowlatt James Gray Nick Hoult Steve James Andrew McGlashan We also got him his very own plaque - proudly displayed on the wall of Lord's Cricket Club.

It reads: 'CRICKET NEEDS CLIMATE LEADERS! FOR BRUCE FROM THE KIDS' 🏏

Plus a replica for his office wall to remind him to 📌 stop insuring new fossil fuel projects.

It seems we are going to start organising Test cricket's schedule around the IPL owners’ social calendar. Odd thing is, there is an opportunity in all this. You may not have noticed, but the County Championship is quietly thriving.
