When sportsmen stop caring enough

The body and mind may be fit enough but athletes often retire when overcome by a profound weariness. Cases in point: Ponting and Swann

How much of a sportsman's story do you need to know?

Journalists may crave the minutest details, but fans are happy to leave some things to the imagination

On Twitter, sport is black and white

Sport has the capacity to forge bonds of connection, but it's hard to do that on platforms that encourage instant, reactive responses

Bigger, better? Sorry, no

Why does cricket have to succumb to the marketers' eternal need for everything to be bigger, flashier, and more in tune with youth - whatever that means?

Cricket's not a lost cause yet

Sackings, revamps, and poor crowds are dispiriting to witness, but your faith in the game is restored when you get thrashed by U-17s while being cheered on by sympathetic schoolchildren

Down and out in Galle

One of cricket's great attributes is that it has room even for the not-so-competent. Sometimes, though, that allowance does not seem to apply

Murder and mysterious cricket footage

The curious case of Test match footage used in a TV crime drama

The grass must be green, the strip yellow

Unlike most other sports, cricket needs to look right to its fans, from the colour of the grass, the pitch and the stumps to the quality of the light

02-Dec-2013•Jonathan Wilson

The perfect end

The best retirements require struggle, one last victory over the forces of entropy, the century made from unpromising beginnings through teary eyes

When Dad's Army did cricket, wretchedly

Television dramas have been historically poor at depicting cricket. Exhibit A: an episode of a well-loved British sitcom

04-Nov-2013•Jonathan Wilson

Do team-mates have to get along?

Dressing rooms are, after all, workplaces. Do you really need to make friends in there?

Harmison of Sabina and elsewhere

His unpredictability could be frustrating, but perhaps the truth of his career and his personality was that he was somebody at his best out of the limelight

06-Oct-2013•Jonathan Wilson

Stop the treadmill, I want to get off

There's never any time to enjoy the triumphs because you need to look ahead to the next game

23-Sep-2013•Jonathan Wilson

Why does cricket not lend itself to the novel?

It could be because literary description of sport is almost impossible because of our over-familiarity with the language of reporting

'How's the Test going?'

Try to follow the game outside the cricket-playing world and its bewildering complexities might alienate you from the locals

29-Jul-2013•Jonathan Wilson

After the grim nadir of the '80s and '90s, England fans have become used to their team winning again - and that, paradoxically, can be frustrating
