Again, brilliant piece. I’m still getting used to the sporting terminology, but the layout you used for this one was really innovative. I liked the division by theatrical acts (Act 1, Act 2). And I believe you used “poetry quotation” feature to keep the first three lines tight together. And then, of course, the flow of it rapid and exciting. Great job!

Cheers Daniel. I'll take your compliments and run with them to the hills! Thanks so much.

Cricket lends itself to the theatrics of 3 Acts and I tend to write every article (Day 1, Day 2 etc) in this format and a more free-form piece for the final day.

It's really kind of you to read anything of mine so I deeply appreciate it and coming from this platform (as opposed to the robots over at Medium) I know it's thoughtful words of appreciation and I truly thank you for them.
