A recent walk along the River Thames in Staines uncovered something of cricket interest. KS Ranjitsinhji - the great Ranji -owned a large house there. It is long demolished, but the former driveway has been given an appropriate name, and the lodge is still there. #Ranji #Ashes

Some heroics as the Netherlands upset South Africa in the cricket World Cup reminded me of one of my favourite Wisden headlines, from 2016, when Mr van der Merwe was about to start playing regularly for the Dutch:

Fun fact for Christmas: the Middlesex and England cricket captain Walter Robins also played two Football League matches for Nottingham Forest - on Christmas Day 1929, and Christmas Day 1930. A comment on his wife's cooking perhaps?! espncricinfo.com/cricketers/wal…

Well he said it out loud and in public. His supporters can deny it no longer. Trump is a danger to the US and NATO, to vote for him is the act of a traitor.

Biden: It wasn't long ago when the Republican president named Ronald Reagan thundered Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall. Now, now my predecessor tells Putin do whatever the hell you want.

Funniest accident i've ever seen

"It's actually rather surprising to discover that stopping for tea during the cricket isn't an English invention at all - the interval was imported from Australia." espncricinfo.com/story/steven-l… Steven Lynch on tea, cakes, sandwiches, Lords and more. Lovely piece.

A werewolf transformation scene for the ages from an obscure 1987 horror flick from Thailand fittingly entitled Werewolf (‘มนุษย์หมาป่า’). An American Werewolf in London has nothing on this.

GUILTY! GUILTY! GUILTY! A thread of cover pages...

Not a big fan of The Daily Star but this is a great front page.

No matter how many times it appears on my timeline, I will always always ALWAYS stop and watch Steffi Graf answering a marriage proposal from a fan in the crowd at Wimbledon. 😂

This is the best substitution you will ever see 😳

I expect former Wisden dinner guest speaker Michael Palin will be amused by the debut of the first Gumbie to play Test cricket - Joylord of Zimbabwe in Belfast today

Lovely quote heard this morning on the BBC World Service, "The only way Donald Trump could get smaller attendances at his rallies is if he were to invite Nigel Farage to speak"

I used to love these. Anybody seen any recently?
