Musings on the Future of the Web
As someone who grew up in England, and was tall I got into cricket as a fast-ish bowler, and reasonably good batsman.
While I don’t have the time to pursue the sport myself, I still love watching cricket. As a statistician, the sport throws up plenty of data, too.
When there’s cricket happening, if the highlights are online, I’ll grab the official embed link and post them here (scroll down), mostly for personal enjoyment. If you also enjoy cricket, you might like this too!
I keep commentary to a minimum, but do post some context, mostly to aid future recollection of what this meant at the time.
Any of the highlights videos I post here are embedded from official rights holders such as Sky Sports, BT Sport or the ECB cricket channels – where embedding is enabled.

After an enthralling test battle, South Africa posted a win in the opening ODI of England’s tour thanks to an impressive knock from Quinton de Kock.
Match highlights from the official UK provider, Sky Sports, are below, for fellow fans.
Since I’m enjoying the England cricket tour of South Africa, I decided to put together a collection of the highlights from the Third Test which is taking place in Port Elizabeth, South Africa, with the series poised at 1-1.
These highlights come from the official source in the UK, Sky Sports’ official YouTube channel.
I’ve collected the highlights from each day, and added some brief commentary to remember some context.
Any ads are from YouTube / Sky Sports. I don’t profit from posting these here, other than as a fan of sport, being able to reflect on a full test match all in one, very fast loading, mobile-friendly, web page, that I publish here on my personal site.
The fourth and final test match of England’s tour of South Africa came along with England leading the series 2-1.
Having come from behind in the series thanks to impressive wins in the second and third test matches, England are looking to maintain their lead, while South Africa need a positive result to tie the series.
Highlights for each day of this potentially decisive test match are below, courtesy of the UK’s Sky Sports, who make their official highlights embeddable. I put them together, with some added context. I don’t publish scoresheets or anything else here. I imagine you could find those elsewhere 🙂
