England, India, Stokes, Jadeja - it's all or nothing at Old Trafford

It was a battle of wills and wants on a final day where both teams danced on knife-edge. And it couldn't have set up the next two Tests better

Sobie, '73

Fifty-one years ago, one of the very greatest set Lord's alight

08-Jul-2024•Mark Nicholas

Goodbye Deadly, fierce of arm, gentle of heart

The England spinner will be remembered as one who gave his all on and off the pitch

16-Apr-2024•Mark Nicholas

Mike Procter, runaway dream

There were few feats the late great South African allrounder could not achieve on a cricket field. He was an action-hero come to life

19-Feb-2024•Mark Nicholas

What is a bad pitch?

The track at Newlands, and the cricket it produced, was like something from the 1800s, leading to mayhem in the middle and exaggeration in the analysis

05-Jan-2024•Mark Nicholas

Who's the greatest ODI batter of them all? Two contenders come to mind

Virat Kohli is the perfect run machine - a product of obsession and sacrifice. Does anyone else compare?

16-Nov-2023•Mark Nicholas

In South Africa's quest for the future, there's no room for heartbreaks of the past

No other team carries the baggage South Africa do in World Cups, but they must shrug it off it before they face Australia in the semi-final

14-Nov-2023•Mark Nicholas

Trials, treks and front-row seats to South Africa's triumphs

Our diarist survives bumpy rides, cancelled flights and missing TV channels in the course of covering the World Cup

The Antipodean World Cups: South Africa's twin heartbreaks, New Zealand's homecoming

A look back at favourite World Cups: two remarkable but wildly different tournaments, 23 years apart, in Australia

28-Sep-2023•Mark Nicholas

From Lahore to Madras at the 1996 World Cup, in cargo planes, delayed trains and on elephants

A look back at favourite World Cups: this time, the thrills and spills of the subcontinent

20-Sep-2023•Mark Nicholas

Remembering Heath Streak, Zimbabwean sporting hero

He was a magnificent cricketer who battled hard on the field and refused to play the political game

07-Sep-2023•Mark Nicholas

Born to run: the summer the World Cup came to be

A look back at favourite World Cups, beginning with the seminal one that heralded a new epoch in cricket

06-Sep-2023•Mark Nicholas

Is this Ashes up there with 2005?

It is difficult to separate the series of 1981, 2005 and 2023 for the cricket played or the impact they had

01-Aug-2023•Mark Nicholas

What more can we expect to see from Zak Crawley in this Ashes series?

And have England found a way to counter the extraordinary Steven Smith?

24-Jul-2023•Mark Nicholas

Let's all bask in Mark Wood's climate of optimism

The fast bowler has a joyous attitude that is really the essence of Bazball

10-Jul-2023•Mark Nicholas

Have England ever before produced such a competitive, utterly compelling and talented cricketer as Stokes?

When in the middle of a cauldron, England's captain produces magic. But sometimes even titans fall short

03-Jul-2023•Mark Nicholas

Did England go too hard? (And is that even the right question?)

Why it seems almost reckless to pass judgement on the Edgbaston defeat

21-Jun-2023•Mark Nicholas

My life through the Ashes: from Deadly Derek to Warnie to Stokes' boys

A half-century of England-Australia contests only whets the appetite for more

12-Jun-2023•Mark Nicholas

What India, England and Australia can learn from MS Dhoni as a big Test summer begins

He is the poster boy for all formats of cricket. If only we could have watched him turn out for the WTC final at The Oval

05-Jun-2023•Mark Nicholas

With the WPL, women's cricket is no longer just an idea

There were lessons, bonhomie and great moments aplenty in two fine games on Sunday night
