  1. @Legger294 @BeefyBotham @piersmorgan The great man bursting into print on the subject of KP only in tomorrow's Daily Mirror
  2. Read the last word on KP's One Day retirement from the one and only voice of cricket- Sir Ian Botham, exclusively in tomorrow's Daily Mirror
  3. @JohnSunCricket that earlier tweet about World T20 might not be so fanciful after all. 16 teamathon!
  4. Serious achievement by Nick Compton to get to 1,000 first class runs this early.
  5. I should point out that these are all recommendations that the ICC cricket committee will put to the ICC executive board. NOT SET IN STONE
  6. Good news for fast bowlers. Now have x2 bumpers at batsmen per over not x1
  7. Only four fielders allowed outside the ring during non-powerplay overs. Means more space generally to hit boundaries
  8. In ODI cricket. First 10 overs remain as powerplay and then just 1 x five over batting PP between 11-40. Bowling PP scrapped
  9. Lots to come out of ICC cricket meeting. Switch-hit is OK for now and no change to rules as they stand, more consultation to be had though
  10. In 2005 I had to go from London to New Zealand to cover a Lions tour then back to England for Ashes and ODIs. Had the summer of a lifetime!!
  11. I for one am rejoicing at the fixture list next summer. Up and down the country watching top cricket. And an Ashes to boot. Lovely jubbly
  12. @JohnSunCricket Notice how the World T20 in 2007 was 13 days, in 2009 and 2010 was 16 days and this year is 19 days. Cue 47 day T20 in 2016!
  13. @Swayam_Maharaj semis are 19th+20th at Oval and Cardiff. Final 23rd at Edgbaston. Group stages yet to be done 6-17th
  14. @kenjreynolds Sorry mate just seen tweet - NZ 16-20 Lord's, 24-28 Headingley. Plus 31st, 2nd June and 5th June ODIs. 25th+27th Oval for t20
  15. @JohnSunCricket Good tournament's a quick tournament!
  16. x5 ODIs v Aus, plus x2 T20 vs NZ and x2 T20 vs Aus. Oh plus an ODI v Ire in Sept. Lots and lots of lovely cricket!
  17. New Zealand open the summer at Lord's and Headingley and then as for the ODIs...3 v NZ, Lord's, Ageas Bowl, Trent Bridge, Champs trophy
  18. Trent Bridge gets to kick off the Ashes. England's happy hunting ground, followed by Lord's, Old Trafford, Durham and the Oval
