The podcast will continue!! Sure there will be plenty of stories to tell

Ahaha you’re not the first to make that joke! I’m sure I’ll be able to find plenty of good cricket stories there

My summer of cricket will be cut a bit short this year but for very good reason! 🇩🇰🇩🇪

Looking forward to exploring plenty of sport in Aarhus & Munich over the next two years as well as developing academically 🎓

Delighted & honoured to have made my Wisden Debut in the 2026 Almanack 🏏

The inaugural Tier 1 T20 Blast Finals Day was very memorable so it was a pleasure to write about it

A few years ago I inherited my grandad’s Wisden collection so this is a very special one to add to it

Ah thankyou 👍

Forecast isn’t too promising but back up in Chester-Le-Street to commentate on Durham v Essex in the One Day Cup 🌧️

Impressive Lewis continues to dominate as Lancashire crush Durham in season opener Lancashire (303/8) beat Durham (154 all out) by 149 runs (match reduced to 48 overs per side)Maybe it is slightly unfair to imagine that the beginning of the English cricket season, arriving as it does hot on the heals of the dawn of British Summer Time, earmarks the start of “actual Summer”.Occasionally, in England, we are blessed with an unseasonably warm April. April 2025 was such a month, when the new county structure for English women’s cricket coincided with some hot sunny weather, helping

Lovely to be back on commentary as Durham started their season against ODC defending champions, Lancashire 🎙️

I did worry 😂😂

Brazil's Laura Cardoso becomes first player to take nine-for in a T20I The 21-year-old allrounder broke the nine-wicket barrier for the first time in T20Is, including a hat-trick for figures of 3-2-4-9

A new world record 👏

I think maybe next week we’ll speak about it on the podcast, not entirely cricket related & not currently a huge cricket place but I may take my cricket kit with me & we’ll see what happens!!

I will say finishing a degree, preparing to move country, moving out of my uni house etc all coinciding with a chaotic cricket season isn’t ideal but very much looking forward to an exciting 2026 season!

This week we are so pleased to be joined by Gloucestershire’s Alice Bird who speaks to us about her new podcast all about cricket and mental health 🧠

The first ep will be out 31st March so please check out her podcast social media [extracoverpod] 🏏

As mentioned on the pod, my cricket team are raising money for BEAT, the UK Eating Disorder Charity by running/cycling 1001km in March as a group (I’m currently at 126km & knackered 🤣)

Ofc no pressure but please donate if you feel able!

New episode out now all about the ‘jumping the shark’ moment for women’s cricket…the Hundred auction

🔴 WATCH Live | The Hundred Auction | Wednesday 11 March - 10AM YouTube video by The Hundred

Almost everyone in the room is male.

A room full of men bidding on women.

If you can't see a problem here, you are the problem.

Happy International Women’s Day from Toronto where today is only 23hrs long! 🇨🇦

Used my limited hours wisely by attending my first PWHL game 🏒

New episode out now reacting the World Cup fixtures, the many bilateral series happening around the world as well as some of the latest news in women’s cricket

Great to hear from Odedra in this piece.

I am a bit puzzled as to why everyone seems so puzzled by the lack of South Asian representation in women's cricket, though. Women in sport are subject to racism too.

Combine that with sexism (in a little thing known as intersectionality), and here we are.

Very grateful Mikhail Shaidorov is the Olympic champion & gets skate in the iconic panda costume on the world stage in easily the most ridiculous but entertaining performance of the gala 🤣

No gold medalist quite like Misha!

Olivia Smart & Tim Dieck having a kick about on the ice in Spain training kit & skating to Freed From Desire…this is why the Olympic gala is the best 🤣

Polly, Raf, Richard and Syd, sitting at a wooden table with drinks.

Lovely to catch up with @00childpodcast.bsky.social in London last night.

Feeling slightly… er… “delicate” this morning tho 😝

Alysa Liu has not stopped smiling throughout the Olympics & finishes with Gold 🥇👑

She came back on her own terms & does it because she loves it. Feel like we all need to take a leaf out of her book

AMBER GLENN, EVERYONE 👏

Her final skate in the women’s singles free skate ends with a BANG.

Stress levels through the roof and I’m neither American or Canadian 🏒

Isabel was great fun to chat to! If you’re looking to hear more about any of the European teams that have qualified, we’ve got plenty of episodes from over the years 🇳🇱

Agreed, they’ve added so much to the broadcast. So supportive of the athletes, great at explaining etc without being condescending

The camaraderie in this Women’s Big Air Final is so beautiful to watch.

Many amazing storylines so far in this Olympics, the genuine support & appreciation for each other’s quality is so cool to see
