Inzamam Calls for Global IPL Boycott Amid Champions Trophy Controversy www.cricexec.com/inzamam-call...

This is what is currently wrong with global cricket. This attitude displayed by Sunil Gavaskar is arrogant and stinks. India are hugely powerful financially, but it doesn't make them immune from criticism. www.cricexec.com/indias-earni...

I'm rolling through socials today and can't believe the number of people slating #Zelensky because he doesn't wear a suit. His country is at war. It's not that hard to understand. Churchill was exactly the same, and I can't recall that ever being an issue.

He is not just appeasing Putin, he is aligned with him. And every single client journalist, political shill & public/online cheerleader on both sides of the Atlantic is too. Against Zelensky. Against Ukraine. Against freedom. Against the most basic tenets of decency.

One wish for world cricket... For global cricket to have the strength of leadership to do a long-term plan. 'What do we want the game to look like in 40 years?' sort of stuff. And then put sensible parameters and stepping stones in place.

"There is too much short-term thinking at the Pakistan Board level," says Jason Gillespie. "There is a fear of failure amongst players because changes are made at Board level on players, coaches and selectors constantly." surl.li/fcknjb

It was obvious #DonaldTrump's a narcissistic, wannabee dictator with a highly questionable past and very few morals to take into the future. It's not like you didn't know what you were voting for. Over than the adjudicated rape, the #Gaza video is an all-time low. Zero class!

European Union was created after World War II. Churchill said it was to create a United States of Europe and a family to ensure sustainable peace and prosperity. But Donald Trump would have probably sided with Germany if his Russian stance is anything to go by.

These Duckettisms are said from a good place and urged on from a dressing room full of vibes and positivity, but they sound daft at the time and look even more ridiculous with hindsight! At least he played well. #ENGvsAFG #ChampionsTrophy2025 #ChampionsTrophy #CT25 #CT2025

When India won the World Cup and introduced the IPL they produced serious players and tremendous teams. When England won the World Cup and introduced The Hundred, it was all about the dosh.

England always look to make the best player captain. Arguably, the only time they didn't was Eoin Morgan. He did okay. Leave Harry Brook alone to find his form. Maybe look for someone from outside the bubble, like Tom Abell? Leave the best players to play their best cricket.

It's patronising for media men to suggest "people back home" will enjoy Afghan success today. That win changes nothing for women who were studying at uni, had jobs, and ambitions and now have nothing. Gender apartheid in Afghanistan is abhorrent. The ICC should do something!

Jos Buttler has to step down as England captain. He looks weighed down by it. Set him free and allow him to remember he's one of the best white ball batters in the world. #AFGvENG #AFGvsENG #ENGvsAFG #ChampionsTrophy2025 #ChampionsTrophy #englandcricket

Rashid Khan can be a bit of a petulant nitwit sometimes. It's the Rashid Khan show. That ball landed 20 yards from the long-off fielder, but Rashid has a tantrum because he didn't dive. #AFGvsENG #ENGvsAFG #ChampionsTrophy2025

Well batted Ibrahim Zadran - 177 off 146 in Afghanistan's 325/7. England up against it. They're going to have to bat really well to win this today. Still feel this is a match that England should not be playing. #ChampionsTrophy2025 #ENGvsAFG

Top knock this from Ibrahim Zadran. Currebtly 153 not out from 136, but Afghanistan need him yo hut them up to 300-plus. This will be a tough chase for England against the Afghan spin attack. #ChampionsTrophy2025 #ENGvsAFG

Every time Donald Trump opens his mouth, he confirms the rumour that he's been on Russia's pay for quite some time. His #UkraineWar solutions certainly appear to be funded by Russia. It's madness. #Ukraine #UkraineRussiaWar #Trump

There must be a line with freedom of speech. When crossed, there must be repercussions in any civilised society. The alternative is to accept sexism, racism, death threats, and inciting / escalating hate crimes are a part of life that we're all OK with. surl.li/lstgzu
