An intensive weekend of #EliteSport beckons - & with it the chance to help @PassageCharity by sponsoring me for every run I score!!!

Anyone worried that sponsoring me may leave them open to financial ruin should be reassured that today’s match is at Warborough, where in five innings I have so far scored precisely zero runs.

Deft glovework from @AdamRutherford, who is now sponsoring me to get a duck...

If there are any mathematicians or moral philosophers out there who could advise...

Ok, this is helpful.

Think I’m going to back myself...

I mean, I can’t score a SIXTH duck in a row at Warborough, can I?

I’m in!

Should any youngsters out there wish to learn how to bat selflessly in the penultimate over, putting the needs of the team over concern for one’s average

What a golden age for #EliteSport it is!
