The first game back

The first time this year you had fun playing cricket

08-Aug-2016•Jonathan Wilson

Cricket equals pain

Your body hurts, your mind rebels, and your spirit can't handle the world changing around you

27-Jun-2016•Jonathan Wilson

I'm not ready to retire, even if my body is

Redemption, fate and hope are words that swirl around in the mind as the dreaded day looms closer

04-Jun-2016•Jonathan Wilson

The ball you're always trying to bowl

When your shoulder is sore, your shin protests, you feel like death, and you play cricket - hoping to produce the devastating dipper you long for

01-May-2016•Jonathan Wilson

England lost? No worries

Can a lifelong supporter of written-off teams handle seismic victories?

04-Apr-2016•Jonathan Wilson

Pre-qualifiers are good, but the structure could do with a tweak

Having a qualifying round in the World T20 is not a bad idea, but it wouldn't hurt to have two more sides go through to join the top eight

13-Mar-2016•Jonathan Wilson

Why do remorselessly excellent players get faint praise?

In cricket as in life, we favour sharp drama and narratives of redemption, doing the Stewarts and the Gooches of the world a disservice

13-Feb-2016•Jonathan Wilson

We won at the P Sara

The Authors notch up their second victory away from home, with a little help (sort of) from your correspondent

29-Jan-2016•Jonathan Wilson

Talking shop with a pro

The perils of getting into a detailed discussion about your technique and game with an expert

21-Dec-2015•Jonathan Wilson

Why unfairness makes cricket special

It's the only sport that expects its athletes to perform feats they are bad at, and where the conditions can turn a match on its head. Let's not lose that

01-Dec-2015•Jonathan Wilson

An agony only cricket can create

No other game makes you crave updates, no matter how trivial, when you are denied live coverage

05-Nov-2015•Jonathan Wilson

My first five-for

It's rare when you're at a certain stage of life to do something for the first time, but it can happen

06-Oct-2015•Jonathan Wilson

The travails of a middle-aged cricketer

When the bad days outnumber the good, and the aches and pains hasten your decline, you wonder if each game might be your last

30-Aug-2015•Jonathan Wilson

Where were you when...

As Stuart Broad ripped through Australia, one writer found himself in an electronics store, surrounded by TVs, none showing the cricket

08-Aug-2015•Jonathan Wilson

Be alarmed, be very alarmed

Death of a Gentleman exposes how neo-liberal economics threatens the game, while also hinting at worse lying beneath the surface, leaving you feeling disillusioned and angry

29-Jul-2015•Jonathan Wilson

The purity of make-believe childhood cricket

There was a certain honesty in matches we played against ourselves as kids, recording it all in scorebooks as we went along

13-Jul-2015•Jonathan Wilson

Long hop or peach?

A ball can be both; it all depends on how you look at it

23-Jun-2015•Jonathan Wilson

Three drops. Should I worry?

Does confidence play a role in catching? Even if the statisticians say otherwise, it certainly feels like it does

11-May-2015•Jonathan Wilson

When was the last good World Cup?

A six-week long tournament with a handful of tight finishes? Who can call that a success?

06-Apr-2015•Jonathan Wilson

The wicket I took on a Test ground

It only changed a nine-wicket defeat into an eight-wicket one but the memory will live forever
