Cricket Corner

[JSngry]

So I'm tuning in early toe The Hundred Final and there's something going on like a Super Bowl halftime show on a smaller scale and I don't mean that as a compliment? Zara Larsson? A lot of women rubbing their asses?

Let's get on to the game please!

I'd even forgotten it was on today

Big crowd there!

One of the biggest cricket grounds too. I'm there for a day of a Test Match three weeks today, will be packed again

Enjoy!

Well, the English Cricket season started today. It almost always starts under grey skies, in barely double-figure temperatures, with gloomy fielders wearing two jumpers. Pensioners, schoolchildren and the unemployed sit huddled in coats and hats in near empty stands. 

Today however, the weather is unseasonably glorious in the UK, and is forecast to remain so for a week or more yet. I shall be mooching to Old Trafford next weekend to use my first Lancashire CCC membership for 35 years.

Is there cricket at Old Trafford too?

Yes, but not at the self-styled "The Theatre of Dreams" complete with internal waterfall. But next door.

Hopefully they can get their own waterfall too, soon.
