The terrorist attack on the Sri Lanka team in Lahore could lead to Dubai and Abu Dhabi becoming the "home" venues for the subcontinent's cricket-playing countries for the ­forseeable future, according to leading officials in England and worldwide. It would be the first time that Tests have been pla...

Who will step forward to save cricket in Pakistan in the wake of the attacks on the Sri Lanka team? It could have been worse – far worse. The rocket missed, the grenades failed to detonate, the ramshackle security fought tigerishly and the targets did not come to serious harm. To inbound tours of ...

…from terrorists.” Imran Khan said he knew this for a fact because… Terrorists rely on support from the masses because that’s where they get their recruits, and cricket is a game which is so loved and there’s such passion in Pakistan, that the terrorists know that if a ...

I think I will always associate Dubai with cricket and terrorism. Last November, I was in the emirate to cover the Dubai Rugby Sevens when the Mumbai attacks happened and remember watching the rolling news coverage in my hotel, shocked and yet gripped by the atrocity. A week later, and three days af...

I was woken half an hour ago by a TV station wanting me to comment on the terrorist attacks on the Sri Lanka team in Lahore. Sadly, this was a scenario that everyone had feared would come at some point. The Champions Trophy was postponed last year because of security concerns and Sri Lanka were only...

92nd over: West Indies 273-5 (target: 503; Nash 16 Ramdin 8) Ah I don't agree with this, Swann is on for a fiddle ahead of the interval. But then what do I know? The first ball takes the edge and shoots away past slip for two runs. Strauss has four men in around the bat. None of them get a sniff fro...

England disintegrated under the searing Caribbean sun as fast as a discarded cube of ice. A match, destined it seemed for a decorous draw on a docile pitch, was lost within an hour in an astonishing transformation. It was almost a mirror image of 2004 when West Indies were bowled out for 47 with Ste...

At first glance, it is hard to feel sympathy for the England players who are miffed that they are having to give up 10 per cent of their IPL fee to their counties. After all, they are still going to earn riches that were unheard of two or three years ago for very little work and in the middle of a r...

Well it's snowing heavily here in England, which has done the usual job of bringing the country to a standstill. Quite how we won a war, I don't know. No buses running in London, various trains cancelled... On the bright side, I had the easiest drive in to work I've ever had as the roads were desert...

Twenty-seven Australians have been entered into the draw for the second IPL auction, to go with the 24 who are already signed up to Indian franchises, which will dwarf England's tally of no more than five or six, including Mascarenhas and Napier.
