Lighting the fire
The occasion made me realize, once again, just how much I love youth sport, particularly youth sport that is played and led in the correct manner. Where teams go out to play as hard as they can, give their all, but everyone stays on the right side of sportsmanship.

Max O'Dowd: The evolution to a process driven approach
Max O'Dowd is an opening batsman for the Netherlands who has quietly gone about fashioning a strong record across all three formats. He grabbed the headlines earlier this year when he guided the Dutch home in a monstrous chase of 370 against Scotland in an ODI in Dundee. Opening the innings, he made an unbeaten 158 from just 130 balls to take his team to victory with four balls remaining and four wickets in hand.
