John Nield @johnnield2.bsky.social · 28/09/2026I only really became aware of Ethan Bamber after his @finalwordcricket.bsky.social interview a couple of years ago. He came across as a really good bloke, and his success is well deserved 000
John Nield @johnnield2.bsky.social · 27/09/2026My last playing day of the cricket season. Roughly 50 games, roughly 50 victims, a decent amount of runs scored. Really enjoyed this year, possibly more than any other season. 020

John Nield @johnnield2.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Nearly 50 years ago, I have a memory of an outbreak of sniggering over "The Mace Debating Competition". In case my memory was playing tricks on me, I looked it up. It's still going! www.esu.org/competitions...esu.orgESU Schools’ Mace Debating Competition | ESUSchools’ Mace is one of the oldest & largest debating competitions for secondary schools. Students learn to persuade, influence & inspire with arguments. 000

John Nield @johnnield2.bsky.social · 15/09/2026A whole batting order based solely on attractiveness would be great. Cummins would open in every test obviously. For both teams 010
John Nield @johnnield2.bsky.social · 15/09/2026Oh, and I also finished top of my division for wicketkeepers despite only playing 6 games. Very pleased with my season overall.

John Nield @johnnield2.bsky.social · 15/09/2026Some personal cricket news. My league season has ended, surprisingly with me playing quite a few games. I'd retired from Saturdays, but got talked into coming back to help a team out who were struggling with numbers. Six games later, six wins and 4th place for me in the league's batting averages 210
