Very good stuff from Jim Wallace in this year's @WisdenAlmanack - about England selection and changing times

“To think that you dreamed about it. Then you got it. I’ll always have it, and I’ll take it with me.” Originally for @WisdenAlmanack and given a trot in today's @guardian. Love that pixelated cricket ball 👇 https://t.co/HsiTP7UEkX

Craig Overton seals a three-wicket win for Somerset with a six. Hell of a win, after Essex led by over 300 with six wickets in hand.

A humdinger at Taunton, where Somerset need 57 more, with four wickets in hand (including James Rew on 93) to chase 321 and beat Essex. Live stream here: https://t.co/30Zv3orPx9

A hall-of-famer going on at Grace Road: Northants were 51 for 0 in reply to Leicestershire’s 304. Reached lunch at 87 for 6.

Good to see him back...

19.5 | That man again. ☝️ Sanderson collects his second as Hill feathers one through to McManus. 🧤 Leicestershire 80/3. Watch live 👉 https://t.co/CU8uwteMyd https://t.co/z7NkfuFHmQ

Ben Compton offers no shot to Ryan Higgins - and loses his off stump. Kent 44 for 3 against Middlesex here at Lord's.

Joe Root falls for a 17-ball 1 to Warwickshire's Ed Barnard on his Yorkshire return...

England's 13-man squad for the one-off Test v Zimbabwe at Trent Bridge on May 22: Ben Stokes (capt), Gus Atkinson, Shoaib Bashir, Harry Brook, Sam Cook, Jordan Cox, Zak Crawley, Ben Duckett, Ollie Pope, Matthew Potts, Joe Root, Jamie Smith, Josh Tongue.

As expected, an update from the ECB: "With immediate effect, only those whose biological sex is female will be eligible to play in women’s cricket and girls’ cricket matches. Transgender women and girls can continue playing in open and mixed cricket."

Zak Crawley is lbw to Dan Paterson for six here at Lord's - played inside a ball that jagged back in, and the umpire has no doubt. Kent 10 for 1.

Goodness me...
