Do you reckon, at 33 years old, Stokes's body is rebelling? It has taken years of punishment.

Stokes doing his hamstring in a stupid competition ruling himself out of the Tests has to be about the most anger-provoking cricket thing for fozzy.

Him doing his hamstring isn't the Hundreds fault. The man is held together by tape. It could just as easily have been any of the other formats he plays.

It's not the hundreds fault. It's his fault.

Graham Thorpe took his own life after two-year battle with depression, say family

I presumed he had been ill all this time which in a sense is true but hadn't considered depression and two suicide attempts. Really sad.

So very tragic.
