Cricket...

Having won the first test match in Chennai by the healthy margin of 227 runs, England have subsided to defeat, by 317 runs, in the second match. That’s quite a reversal, and sets up the next two games, in Ahmedabad, starting next week. England were well beaten in all aspects of the game. Nevertheless, when England’s last wicket fell, Joe Root and the rest of the team walked onto the pitch and shook the hand of every member of the Indian team. That’s classy. Donald Trump could learn a few lessons about losing gracefully (and that coming second, in a fair contest, doesn’t make you “a loser”)…

Licenced today: Saltend chemical works, near Paull, East Yorkshire…
