Jarrod was excellent. He focussed on entirely different aspects of the book to everyone else.

But I enjoyed them all.

Should have stipulated ‘English’ cricket.
He didn’t want to accept what I presented in the book.
But I’m sure the ICEC report would have helped.

Yes indeed. Deffo had a major blind spot when it came to cricket.

Looking forward to seeing the highlights.

Poisonous man. Amazing what a posh accent allows you to get away with.

But also a reason the book was downplayed - if mentioned at all (despite off the record praise). Mad, given it came out at height of Rafiq scandal the Guardian, at least, didn’t review.

Indeed. On which, as this excerpt from your book suggests, Agnew is one of the most consistent offenders.

Peter Oborne has proven he’s the real deal since he left the Telegraph, but his article on Pietersen is typical of how English #cricket ‘gatekeeps’ who is in or out.

Hmmmm. Can’t see past the Aussies at home. Will be tight though given their absentees.

😅😇

I went with a mob from work. Ticket number 7!
