Surely not!

The august organ Wisden has waspish things to say about the state of English cricket – and Paul Downton’s post disappears.  Nicky (@somersetbagpuss) tweets “I like to think that somewhere @the_topspin is smiling enigmatically whilst stroking a white cat”

Horatio Moore

“As the nominated Minister for Defence in any government formed by @almurray my first act will be to advocate war with France.” tweets Brian Moore.  Blimey.

“Awesome from the wizard @crwoakes19 today.” tweeted Steven Finn
