Googly

We’re stepping up to the crease this week as we test our knowledge of the rich, and sometimes baffling, language of cricket. We discover the agricultural origins behind some of the terms, we find out the difference between the different ducks, and we have to admit to being stumped by some of the lingo along the way.

As always we have a lot of fun, answer some of your brilliant questions, and Gyles signs off with a beautiful and poignant poem.
