Was a pleasure and honour to work with @timwig on his newest! Elated to finally see it in print. Been leafing through the book since morning, really loving the writing! Tim has managed to merge narrative and numbers to paint a fitting tribute to the best ever. Get your copy now.

Match factor is great but has its problems. It puts a Zimbabwean Steven Smith much higher than the Australian one, fails to rate a great Taijul Islam performance and treats openers unfairly. Read more in my new article! Link below 👇🏻.

It's totally safe for women
Proof is in the civilized comment section of this post
Several new stadiums are emerging in different cities in India, but how safe are they really for women travelling to and from late-night games?
@swaris16 looks at a subject that rarely gets the attention it deserves.

Was great to sit down with Jarrod for Commbox to discuss and introduce my new T20 Theory Primer, rant about the state of cricket data, and talk about why analytics really hasn't broken through despite some notable successes.

Had the most perfect introduction to Japanese food, in an unexpected place in rural Amdavad, while perusing through a manga collection and watching MLB on Japanese TV.
Felt good writing about food after a ~16 month hiatus, do check it out :)

Here are the slides from my lecture today at the Sports Econ class at the University of Portsmouth today.
DISCLAIMER: These were created by Claude, fed with my earlier presentations, articles, and my T20 Primer. I heavily edited the slides after.

One of the best innings I have ever seen
Johnson was bowling at the speed of light, our batters were hopping around looking terrified, and AB came in and made it looked like nothing

Lowest score at the fall of the 6th wicket to result in a men's Test innings win:
51-6 → 284, 🇦🇺 bt 🏴 by inns & 147, Sydney 1895
102-6 → 446, 🏴 bt 🇵🇰 by inns & 225, Lord's 2010
110-6 → 425-9d, 🇿🇦 bt 🇦🇺 by inns & 31, Gqeberha 2026
WHAT A WIN THIS!!!!
145 overs of play lost, 110/6 batting first, and they win by an innings with an hour of play left on Day 5 which was also delayed due to rain.
Arguably South Africa's finest Test win in a long time 🙌 #SAvAUS

England pacers bowled a tad too short and wide, getting carried away by pace-friendly pitches. Travis Head made full use of it by using his trademark cut shots.
But as lengths went fuller and lines closer to the stumps, Head couldn’t play those shots because of early movement.

As chilling videos and allegations of minors beaten up, protesters kicked, lawyers denied entry at the gates, and phones being seized emerge from Pandwala Khurd detention center, @betwasharma & I document what happened last night to the protesters:

This literally gave me chills.
The testimony of a detainee who was taken by the police to a community centre in Pandwalan Khurd.
This is Horrific.
Random Cricket Stats retweeted
🚨 UPDATE
The detainees are being released after HOURS of extrajudicial torture & detention. This group of 50-60 detainees INCLUDES MINORS.
SPREAD THIS STORY EVERYWHERE. Let it bring us global shame.
Shame on you @DelhiPolice @AmitShah. Anyone with dignity would resign now.

This is the most horrific detention story you will hear today.
At 8 PM, this bus stopped at a community centre in Pandwalan Khurd (see photo).
Detainees fractured. Four minors present. Everyone barbarically beaten up. No lawyers allowed to enter.
This is how we got here. ⬇️
