Cricket fans are converging on Old Trafford for the fifth and final test, England v India, of the summer. They’ll be listening to the car radio, and learning that the game has been called off, after some of India’s staff (but none of the players) tested positive for covid.
Every seat in Old Trafford had been sold, and spectators will presumably get a full refund, but the wicket has already been prepared, and all the sandwiches made. How about putting on some kind of game (England v England B, say, or two county sides), and dedicating the event to the men and women of Afghanistan’s international cricket teams?
Two cricketers on Bootle beach on the Cumbrian coast. We just need another twenty players to turn up at Old Trafford, and we can put on a game...
