We are not short of things to talk about today with threeamazing games in Southampton and Headingley. Firstly the big one we've been waiting for, Australia v The Netherlands. We were delighted to see Babette de Leede and Robine Rijke, friends of the pod, play their 100th IT20 and watch the Netherlands dismiss a few of the Aussies. Then the surprise of Bangladesh v Pakistan where Bangladesh caused a bit of upset after Pakistan looked so stable. Finally, we were at Headingley for Scotland v England where the Scots were as loud as ever but fielding mistakes stole the show and Englanddominated with the bat.
Henry Moeran is joined by World Cup winners Katherine Sciver-Brunt and Alex Hartley as England beat Scotland by 38 runs in front of a record-breaking crowd at Headingley.We hear from player of the match Sophia Dunkley and all-rounder Dani Gibson who shared a powerful partnership with Freya Kemp. We also get reaction from both captains plus we hear from an emotional Scotland spinner Kirstie Gordon.
Simon Mann is alongside former England captains Michael Vaughan and Sir Alastair Cook, and Jonathan Agnew for reaction to a tough day for England at The Oval in the third day of the second Test against New Zealand.Matt Fisher looks back on the day which also brought him his first half-century for England. Plus, we hear from Durham chief executive Tim Bostock who was "bemused" about doubts around England Test captain Ben Stokes' "state of mind".Also, Henry Moeran looks ahead to England's clash with Scotland in the Women's T20 World Cup on Saturday at Headingley.
What a game! It was the first day of the World Cup where neither of us were at a game but we kept our eyes locked on the Scotland v West Indies match at Headingley.

W/C 11th May 2026A thought struck me as I was walking through Charles de Gaulle airport last week. I wondered how far I was standing (at that precise moment, in that exact spot) from somebody that I knew, but was unaware of.And not just that moment, maybe the last time I was in London or in Leeds, or on holiday or on the train, etc, etc.Clearly with the tech we have at our disposal we can (to an extent) answer that question with stuff such as location sharing, and snap-maps. But that only works with an engaged friendship group, and not necessarily everybody we have ever come into some form of contact with.So the question remains, how close do we pass to people we are acquainted with, but never actually bump into. Was an old school friend also passing through CDG at the same time as me last week, or taking coffee in Headingley yesterday whilst I was at the cricket, or being stuck in the same queue as me on the M1 on Tuesday evening.Answers on a postcard please.Stay safe.Honesty - Billy JoelTherapy For Me (or TFM as I now refer to it) is a bit of an audio curiosity. It started out as a mechanism for me to clear my head, with the hope that by saying stuff out loud it would act as a little bit of self-help. It's remains loose in style, fluid in terms of content and raw - it's a one take, press record and see what happens, affair.If you want to keep in touch with TFM and the other stuff I do then please follow me on Facebook, Insta, Twitter or Patreon. Thanks for getting this far.
Sports photography isn't just about finding the right lighting composition, but requires forging relationships with the subjects, combined with a deep understanding of the context that can turn photographs into entire stories. Gareth Copley-Jones has been the man behind the camera for some of England cricket's most iconic images. Ben Stokes at Headingley, Jofra Archer's delirium at Lord's, and Chris Woakes walking out to bat with his arm in a sling are a result of Gareth's skill and application. In Picture Of England, we're taken behind the viewfinder to deconstruct the science, research, and sheer hard work of getting the perfect shot. With thanks to Surrey CC, Gareth sits down with Daniel Norcross for a fascinating insight into his processes.

W/C 20th April 2026I think I might be going through the summer with a red nose, for a number of reasons.a) I have now spent a couple of days at Headingley for the cricket, and on both occasions the sun has been shining.b) spending a lot of time reading around the pool in Gran Canaria.c) the design of my sunglasses and a definite-sized noseThe result is that my nose always catches the sun (irrespective of sun block) and the sunglasses mark accentuates the effect.Short of one of those cardboard-nasal-cod-pieces I think it will continue to be my summer feature.Stay safe.Don't Let Me Down - The Beatles

The controversies surrounding the Winnipeg Metropolitan Region board continued this week after a sixth rural municipality, Springfield, voted to depart the group. In Episode 4, Councillor Mark Miller elaborates on their reasons, which echoed complaints that derailed the WMR's previous Plan20-50 development blueprint.This interview supplements our column in today's Winnipeg Sun - RM of Springfield exits WMR6.10 Part 2- Ward 3 councillor Mark Miller describes the district of 16,000 residents which includes the towns of Oakbank, Dugald and Anola. It's a rural setting east of Winnipeg with many commuting to the city for work and appointments. He explains how Plan20-50 was set up to allow Winnipeg to "dominate" development planning with a veto that undermines local autonomy. After being ordered back to the drawing board, that hasn't changed."We can breathe a sigh of relief to get out of this bad situation," Miller says, calling it "a horrendous horrible exercise" that cost his RM over $130K. While WMR defenders smeared opposition concerns, "It wasn't misinformation - you were providing accurate information... they did not consult. I'm thankful you were on top of this from Day One."He actually attended to the single Plan20-50 open house the WMR staged in Winnipeg in 2024, held on a weekday when "most of us are working stiffs" and couldn't go."I was disgusted, " Miller states. "They weren't catering to the citizen who is most affected in the rural municipalities... maybe it was strategy that they don't want the public to be involved" 23.23 Part 3- While Springfield will go back to the residents before any vote to re-join the WMR, residents of Winnipeg have had no say whatsoever on remaining in the organization, let alone be able to find out if taxpayers are getting value for their dollars."The hemorrhaging is continuing, and there could probably be more," Miller predicts, as other RMs determine "there's nothing for us. "27.10- The schedule for preparing a new regional plan runs concurrent to the fall municipal elections, which Miller agrees means support for the WMR can become an campaign issue.- "If our Mayor runs that he is for it, I can assure you his vote count will go way down because our residents don't want it. "- "The whole process was flawed and continues to be flawed if they don't consult with the public directly... it isn't an expensive exercise, don't tell me it's too expensive."- "I will not vote for anything that allows the City of Winnipeg to have veto power."At the council meeting before the vote, Mayor Patrick Therrien revealed “The City of Winnipeg will be looking to expand its boundaries in the very near future." Miller asks, "Does he know something we don't?... if that's the case are they just going to take parts of West St. Paul and Springfield and MacDonald or Headingley?... If that's their subtle agenda then we ought to be really cautious about this."*****OUR RECENT COLUMNS IN THE WINNIPEG SUNTop cop silent on drug siteExcuses for ridership decline fails to fool Transit usersTO DONATE TO THE SEASON 7 FUNDING DRIVE, EMAIL MARTYGOLDLIVE@GMAIL.COM
From Nathan Lyon dropping the ball at Headingley to Shane Warne's 700th Test wicket. From Steve Smith's century on return from his ban to Steve Harmison's first ball wide at the Gabba - what is the ultimate Ashes moment? Isa Guha, Sir Alastair Cook, and Jonathan Agnew debate their top 10 Ashes moments.
For this episode we're joined in our Hammersmith HQ by James ("The Hardest Working Man In Show Business") Brown. The former NME star and founder of "lads' mag" progenitor loaded takes us back to his Yorkshire boyhood in Headingley. He recalls his parents' record collection, the first gigs he attended as the class "smart-arse" at Lawnswood School... and his acclaimed '80s fanzine Attack On Bzag! Our guest's account of how he came to contribute to Sounds leads to clips from the late Andy Gill's 1991 audio interview with the KLF, the maverick duo of Bill Drummond and Jimmy Cauty whom James championed in the paper's pages in 1987. After waxing nostalgic about his days at the NME, James gives us the origin story of the hugely successful loaded ("for men who should know better") and talks us through the publishing phenomenon it triggered. A discussion follows of '90s sexism and its connection to the misogyny of today's "Manosphere". Many thanks to special guest James Brown. Animal House: Music, Magazines, Mayhem is published by Quercus and available now from all good bookshops. Zine Age Kicks is available through James' Instagram, @jamesjamesbrown. Pieces discussed: The Beastie Boys: Keep Taking The Tabloids, Mark E Smith, Nick Cave & Shane MacGowan: The Three Horsemen Of The Apocalypse, The KLF audio and The decline of lads' mags: Unloaded, and now the party is over.

England India Daily, 1st Test, Headingley, Review: Daniel Norcross and Ben Jones assess a wild Test match in Leeds that was… actually quite predictable when you break it down day by day. Is this the end of batting first in England? Daniel seems to think so. Joe Root continues to be unnervingly nerveless in run chases. Looking to Edgbaston, how will the bowling lineups look? Will Akash Deep or Arshdeep Singh be called in to bolster the pace attack? Will we see Atkinson return for England or, whisper it, Jofra Archer? For India in general, will Shubman find his voice in the field, and will his troops be able to up their intensity in the field?

Led by the exceptional Ben Duckett, England pull off one of their greatest-ever run-chases in the first Test against India,at a venue famous for excitement. England, emboldened by a first wicket stand of 188, overhauled their target of 371 with time and wickets to spare. It was a victory all the more remarkable because India dominated the game for most of the first four days, but came unstuck by resourceful, fearless England on the fifth. Simon Hughes and Simon Mann marvel at Duckett's bravado and the dynamic brand of cricket that England play. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

England v India produced the drama we were all hoping for, by conjuring up one of the all time great Test matches to begin the series at Headingley. Bumrah laboured but Duckett and Crawley showed they had answers as England ticked off the runs. Shardul Thakur then nearly turned it for India by picking up Brook, but Root was still there and slowly him, Stokes and and Smith ticked off the runs.
