Ben Stokes says that a random encounter with a non-cricket fan during a spa break between Tests has brought home to him just how important and engaging this Ashes series is proving to be, and has vowed to continue to push for victory at all costs in this week’s second Test at Lord’s. Australia’s thrilling
The long-awaited report by the Independent Commission for Equity in Cricket was published on Tuesday, and offered a damning critique of both English cricket, and Marylebone Cricket Club – the hosts for this week’s second Test against Australia at Lord’s. The issues raised in the report have overshadowed England’s preparations for the contest, and at

The PCB election commissioner and acting chairman, Ahmed Shehzad Farooq Rana, rejected them and replaced them with representatives of Larkana, Dera Murad Jamali, Bahawalpur and Hyderabad.

Josh Tongue has only taken 11 wickets for Worcestershire in the County Championship’s second division this season but one of them earned him more attention than the other 10 put together.

The Independent Commission for Equity in Cricket (ICEC) has recommended the ECB oversees “a fundamental overhaul” to the pay structure of women’s cricket in England and Wales.

It’s a sign that a tour is running smoothly when there are very few unknowns about selection for the next match. As with last week, the only question for Australia to answer is around the final make-up of their pace attack with Mitchell Starc waiting in the wings should a change be made at Lord’s.
