Actual cricket thought: India's T20 team are desperate for an all-rounder to balance the side before next year's World Cup. But the only comp where they can find/develop one is the IPL and that has the Impact Player rule which drastically reduces the need for an all-rounder.

Another mad example of how cricket media rights work/don't work.
Root became England's leading run scorer in history today. And the official England account can't share it - and will never be able to share it - because they don't have the rights to match footage.

I've found Aussie cricket fan culture fascinating since I've been here. A national sport that people only pay attention to for two months a year with a swirl of politics mixed in throughout.
Here's my interpretation of it all. Hope it's not dumb.

🇺🇸Dallas is done for this WC. All four matches have been great events.
Can make the case that part of its success is that cricket has been building a community here for years as opposed to the 'pop-up' nature of NY.

My current favourite stat.
On average in June, it rains on 23 days a month in Guyana.

So England will play India in Guyana on Thursday.
A couple of things to note:
- the forecast is less than ideal
- India will qualify if the game is washed out having won their group
Unusually, this second semi-final has no rain-reserve day. The first one in Trinidad does.

Not having that as anything other than a massive bottle job from Pakistan. Bumrah's key final over had two massive fullies in it. Pak needed 47 off 47 with eight wickets in hand. How are you finishing on 113 in a T20 having not even been bowled out? Madness

The thing that makes my brain hurt though, is that the lad whose batted "properly" and "read the situation well" has got 17. And the lads who've got wrong have scored 98, 42, 10 and 50. And those numbers are bigger than 17.

Over 300 innings for Michael Hogan and never once LBW. Think I have a theory as to how he's managed it. Can't be sure though.
Michael Hogan is 41 years old and has batted over 300 times in professional cricket🏏
He has never been out LBW.
