Credit Where Due

One of the big surprises of the new test series is that Tuffers is a lot smarter than he makes out. His understanding of the game is well ahead of a lot of the commentary team, but also he’s very astute. Just now someone (CMJ I think, but it might have been Bloers, I wasn’t paying a lot of attention at the start) was in the process of saying something deeply sexist about the English women’s cricket team, and Tuffers gently and firmly turned the conversation away from physical appearance and onto cricketing prowess. I’m impressed.
