Important announcement 🎺
In light of the tragic incident in Nottingham this week, we wanted to commemorate Barnaby and Grace who both played cricket.
So please join us in the 53rd over (Barnaby’s playing number) for a rendition of ‘Amazing Grace’ as requested by their team mates ❤️
The difference a day makes. A nice contrast shown on Spark Sport of Bracewell's running yesterday v his runout of Bradman Brook for 0 (0). The joys and disasters of cricket :-)

That running between the wickets from Michael Bracewell... well... that's what we've been coaching the under 10's not to do this Term... @BLACKCAPS#NZvENG
The slide will continue for the @WHITE_FERNS until NZC and the major associations stop believing their 'great comms' about the health of the women's and girls game - and work on the realities of selection, high performance, and community game instead. #T20WomensWorldCup#SAvNZ
New tournament, familiar script from the @WHITE_FERNS. Sophie Devine sums it up well with "we were poor today in all facets of the game". Expecting the same old, same old poor selections and "high performance" NZC staff to remain constant though.
No Amy Satterthwaite (among other notable omissions) and Hannah Rowe batting as high as #6 vs one of the best teams in cricket history. Unsurprising that's the biggest defeat by runs for New Zealand women in T20Is.. #T20WorldCup2023
Nicholas Winton helped 669 Jewish children escape the Nazis. His efforts went unrecognized for 50 years. Then in 1988, while sitting as a member of a TV audience, he suddenly found himself surrounded by the kids he’d rescued, now adults.
I like to remember this every Jan 27th.
Congratulations to NZ on becoming the first team through to the SFs, unless Australia annihilate Afghanistan.
NZ is like Iceland version 2, so it's always good when they do well. Earthquakes, volcanoes, glaciers, and many more sheep than people.
Bearer Party.
You carried Her Majesty on your shoulders many times as the world watched you.
Go have a beer, you've bloody well deserved it.

Pretty sure I'm with the rest of the nation who think these 8 young men done a great job every time they had to huge responsibility of carrying the Queen I bet their parents are incredibly proud as are we #queensfuneral
