I think you are right, I think I Met Matt Mott the Mitt's mutt.
His name escapes me though.

I was surprise he is now 25, but of course he has missed several years sadly.
Very inconsistent for Glamorgan I remember but he was only 22 when he left them.
I hadn't realised he invented the scooping slap shot often seen in the IPL these days

99-3, a wicket for Hogan off the first ball of his second spell.
Presumably, Donald will have, or has had, a contract extension after being injured for so long, but I was wondering if we’d be interested in taking him back at some time, but the gossip I heard was that he didn’t leave under the best of terms.
Like the idea of McCullum as England coach, but I’d have thought he was better suited to the one day stuff.
Actually I believe he studied meterology at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology where his lecturer was also called Matt Mott,who incidentally had a dog.
I have never met either Matt Mott but I have met the dog. So as I once told a mate of mine........
I met Matt Mott's Mit Met Matt Mott's mutt, mate
McCullum gets the job.
Yes McCullum has built a reputation as a white ball coach (although KKR aren't doing so well in the IPL this year).
However this trbute from Kane Williamson albeit from when McCullum was still a player but was NZ test captain suggest that he does have the people skills to do the job ( not sure that has always been the case with England coaches)
My favourite touring side of recent years was the one McCullum captained in 2013 it might have been (far more enjoyable than the yet another bloody Ashes series which followed it). They were the epitome of playing the game the right way, if he could achieve half of what he did there, England are going to be fun to watch in the coming years.
2 in 3 for Hogan to leave Durham 290/9. Great effort considering Durham has been a batting paradise so far this year.
The bowlers have done well
Unsurprisingly Salter already gone though. This must be the last match he opens the innings. It was silly experiment.
Makes you wonder why they asked Root to open for the seconds, to then play him down the order on his return to the first team.
One of the old boys was asking him that at the Leicestershire match. He gave a non committal ' i can't see past tomorrow at the moment ' . Would be great to see him stay on. He mentioned in the press that it was more about letting his missus concentrate on her career rather than any tiredness with the game. Hopefully he'll annoy the missus and kids early next season and they'll be happy to get rid of him for a couple of months !!
72-4 Labuschagne adding just one run tinhis overnight score in nearly an hour at the crease. He looks in no kind of form.
156/5 at lunch. Carlson looking in really good nick. We could do with him and Cooke hanging around for a good while yet though.
Stokes bowling these days looks very ordinary.
163/7. Cooke gone too. Really disappointing batting today.
Something to cheer you up following Glum’s batting today
