TFW Daily - Root Ashes 2027 captain? - England NZ, 2nd Test, Oval Preview
Eng v NZ Daily 2026, 2nd Test, Oval, Preview: For England, it’s hard to imagine how their time since Lord’s could’ve been more chaotic. So much drama, so many changes. Now across the river, it means at least two debuts, possibly three, and up to give changes pending circumstances outside of their control in a birthing suite. What of Stokes, and McCullum’s press conference yesterday? And of Root, who steered so comfortably through his captain’s press conference today? Might it be that interim leader extends to, say, the 2027 Ashes? Adam and Ben Jones can see it. As for New Zealand, after some time away, they arrive at a ground without Williamson, but with belief that these conditions should suit them perfectly to make the most of this chance.

CA sell-off hits more roadblocks, Ben Stokes hits the showers

Women's T20 World Cup 2026, Day 2, Scotland v Ireland and Australia v South Africa: Lots of chat from South Africans before this tournament about taking the next step, and from all of about whether Australia might be vulnerable, but they sure didn't look like it when Phoebe Litchfield and Georgia Wareham set about their work.

TFW Daily - England start furiously - Women's T20 World Cup, Day 1
Women's T20 World Cup 2026, Day 1, England v Sri Lanka: There has been plenty of pressure on the England women's team coming into a home World Cup after their poor recent history, but they couldn't have done any more than they did in their opener against Sri Lanka. A record tournament score, one wicket down, and a ruthless bowling performance to close out a thumping win. Meanwhile, Chamari Atapattu has to live with her team's shortcomings.

Emergency ep: Kane Williamson retires
Don’t say it’s over. After one last go around at Lord’s, Big Daddy Kane has left the arena, retiring from all New Zealand cricket. An abrupt decision in the middle of their Test series against England, but one in keeping with someone who has always kept his own counsel. Two of the Fab Four have now given up the whites, with Williamson departing as an all-time great, and New Zealand’s finest ever with the bat.

Ben Stokes and the grown men under curfew
Season 20, Episode 16: Ben Stokes and trouble on a night out, is it? Deidre Chambers. But then, is there more to this, or less to this, than meets the eye? How much comes down to the ECB’s management of everything around its team? Also this week, Cricket Victoria lob a grenade into the Big Bash privatisation story, planning to blow up both the Stars and the Renegades, and the mighty Bangladesh Tigers knock off Australia for a second time.
