A trip down 2005 lane

There is nothing in sport quite as good as the realisation that the success you've almost written off as impossible is actually happening

01-Feb-2015•Jonathan Wilson

Any bats for sale in Malabo?

You've got to practise your cricket, but it's not worth the risk of taking your own bat through customs in a non-cricket playing country

What we often miss in World Cups

It's impossible as adults to watch sport as we did in childhood, when we remembered only the great moments and filtered out the drabness in between

05-Jan-2015•Jonathan Wilson

The charm of the Boxing Day Test

This annual fixture is special not just for the cricket, but also because it satisfies one of the tenets of Christmas - bringing people together

21-Dec-2014•Jonathan Wilson

Why do we remember what we remember?

Reflections on memories of a certain summer Saturday in 1983

07-Dec-2014•Jonathan Wilson

How much can you love a franchise?

Yes, money is important, and so is the quality of the contest, but there's also something to be said for soul, and meaning

24-Nov-2014•Jonathan Wilson

How will future historians judge modern numbers?

Will they think there's something odd about a bowler getting a batsman out one too many times?

09-Nov-2014•Jonathan Wilson

Glum, grim, gutsy

Graeme Smith was an unwatchable, immovable nuisance; he was also a terrific match-winner

01-Nov-2014•Jonathan Wilson

The power that books hold

We may not be strangers to what players say, but we still tend to accord their words greater respect when they're on paper and between two covers

28-Oct-2014•Jonathan Wilson

The thankless job of fielding

In sport, bloopers by fielders and defenders tend to register more than the positives, such as goals or great bowling spells

13-Oct-2014•Jonathan Wilson

Following Durham's fortunes from Upton Park

Tuning in to a cricket final while on Premier League duty

29-Sep-2014•Jonathan Wilson

It's about anecdotes, not numbers

Runs and wickets matter little in games involving authors, seminarians and the like. It pays to keep your ears open

15-Sep-2014•Jonathan Wilson

The power of booing

It has value when used against players who have transgressed - particularly if they have somehow offended the spirit of the game

01-Sep-2014•Jonathan Wilson

How much practice is enough practice?

Deciding how much time to set aside to unwind is a dilemma in any profession. In sport, it's all down to the player, not the coach

18-Aug-2014•Jonathan Wilson

The fear of the ringer

How a team can collapse in the face of some ordinary bowling if they believe they are batting against a pro

03-Aug-2014•Jonathan Wilson

When the weak can resist the strong

Cricket and football give lesser teams and players a chance to hold out and sometimes even show up stronger opposition

14-Jul-2014•Jonathan Wilson

Cricket as a metaphor for life

Perhaps in no other game does the adage of playing the hand you're dealt apply as much as it does in cricket

30-Jun-2014•Jonathan Wilson

Why stadiums need a sense of place

In football, increasingly, it's hard to tell which city you're watching a game in. Cricket venues still maintain a sense of where they belong

16-Jun-2014•Jonathan Wilson

So how was your cricket weekend?

Did it involve getting locked in a coffee-shop toilet, getting off the bus in the wrong place, and discovering the Bopara pose?

02-Jun-2014•Jonathan Wilson

The tragedy of fixing

Incidents that in a drama you'd reject as absurd you relish in sport because you know they actually happened. Until you stop believing that they actually happened
