Earlier this month, I wrote a piece about the current state of the official sport of my heart, Cricket. Unless you have just arrived on Earth on a tourist visa from Mars, you would have heard that things are not going so well with this once-beautiful game. Intrigued? Then please read on... 

The article was published, in it's entirety, in a very respectable publication called The National for which my very respectable friend (and fantastic sports writer) CB currently works. It would be great if you could take a few minutes to visit the site by clicking here and reading. If you feel the sudden and uncontrollable urge to leave a comment, that would be great too. 

A big shout-out to the many people around the world who have already read and shared, tweeted, e-mailed, facebooked, googleplussed, pinterested, and whatever else the kids are doing these days. 

On a more serious note, thank you. It means a lot. Hopefully this will be just the start, with many more to come.
