Alastair Cook: Farmer, nurdler, hunter, and Test-match survivor

Even at his most fluent, Cook cannot avoid being ungainly. But without him on the first day at Lord's, England would have been sunk without trace

The inevitable, indispensable Kevin O'Brien century

Kevin O'Brien isn't the best player Ireland has ever had, he's just the one who keeps producing their most important innings

Ireland endured a disappointing first day of Test status, but they've endured greater hardships than this in the past

The brief and untold history of Ireland-Pakistan

This might be the first men's Test between the two nations, but their cricketing trajectories have many surprising intersections

11-May-2018•Jarrod Kimber

Ireland prepare to be judged like never before

But you get the feeling for most of the players, and the coaching staff, they just want the game to start

Alan Lewis, Irish cricket's unknown hero

Better known as a rugby referee and the man who spotted Ed Joyce as a 10-year-old, Alan Lewis was also one of the best cricketers of his generation

Why Andre Russell is such a big deal in T20

He's one of the few players who can make an impact on a match at just about every stage of it

Why isn't Ravindra Jadeja better in T20 cricket?

Slow left-arm spinners generally do well in T20s, plus he can also bat a bit. Then why doesn't he stop runs, take many wickets, or bat quicker in the IPL?

Ben Dunk's search for star quality

Ben Dunk's form lurches from devastating to disastrous but no matter what he does the media can't be bothered to work itself up into a frenzy

27-Jan-2018•Jarrod Kimber

The new vocabulary of T20

Forget about averages and economy - T20 analysts are now measuring 'true strike rates', percentage 'activity rate', and the phenomenon of 'unconsolidating'

23-Jan-2018•Jarrod Kimber

Is this the end for old man Hogg?

In his 47th year, Brad Hogg is leaking runs like he never used to, despite no obvious drop in his accuracy or consistency. He will keep going on forever if he can, but he's in the last year of his BBL contract, and the fairytale might just be winding down
