Away from the field, another battle brews between Yorkshire clubs, that of ‘cricket teas'
A tea break for a club cricket game in the sub-continent is typically a quick round of cutting chai. In case the hosts are generous, there may be a plate of biscuits and a few odd wafers thrown in. In Yorkshire, England's deeply traditional county with 800 clubs and over 125,000 recreational players, tea can't be light, nor can it be taken lightly. Around here, clubs have designated 'tea ladies', the honour bestowed on the wife, daughter or sister of a home player who plays host as sandwiches, cakes, scones, and, of course, tea is served. But with that spread, a club can't expect to win the fiercely contested 'Cricket Yorkshire Tea of the Year' competition that's sponsored by, who else, Yorkshire Tea. In its fourth year, the contest has been announced and alongwith the smell of freshly cut grass from the cricket field, there's the ovens sending out the tempting whiff of cakes getting baked. The first winner of this 'Battle of Teas' was a North Yorkshire club, Ripon. 'They had an almost formal sit-down tea. There were two tables, white tablecloth, proper cooked gammon (smoked or cured ham). It was a sort of a proper English lunch experience you might have,' says John Fuller, who initiated this cricketing bake-off to keep alive the sumptuous cricketing tradition. Fuller runs the website Yorkshire Cricket, a virtual Wisden for all small clubs. Though the contest rules specify a budget limit to clubs and insist on the spread being 'home-made', the variety is heady. Fuller's write-up on last year's contest is mouth-wateringly detailed. In dressing rooms across Yorkshire the tea-time offering had tomato and mozzarella salad, coleslaw, pulled pork and apple sauce, honey and sesame sticky sausages, sweet chili chicken enchiladas, homemade pizza, quiche, scones, pork pies and piles of glistening salad with crisp radishes. That's beyond the cakes, brownies and breads. In years to come, the contest is expected to get spicier with a few Indian clubs. Interlink mainly has cricketers with roots in India and a local restaurant called Azim, too, has a cricket team. 'At Interlink, they have a kind of 'family day' each year, where family members of each player come with a dish from their part of India. It makes for a really varied cricket team with lots of curries and samosa chaat,' says Fuller. The wheels of the competition get rolling with Fuller calling for entries on his Cricket Yorkshire website. Those willing to participate put pictures of their tea spread. Word of mouth appreciation, along with some field trips during tea time, decide the winner. The final call on the winner is made by Fuller and the Yorkshire representative, Abigail Sawyer. What about the prizes? It's mostly about 1,500 tea bags for the winner and a special treat for the chef volunteers. 'We give a yearly quota of Yorkshire tea and we also pay the ladies or gentlemen who prepare the tea. We also send them to a really posh teahouse. They get champagne and afternoon tea, so for once they don't have to make it and get to enjoy it,' says Sawyer, who didn't play the game but was a regular at games for tea. Cricket, in English towns and villages, remains a family activity. Following the fortunes of the local club would be sons, daughters and mothers. The reason cricket — even Tests in England draw crowds — is alive and kicking is the community support for the sport in every small village. 'Families are very much plugged into the game. In the longer format of the game, a proper tea is important. This is a proper pause where everyone can just take a breath, stop appealing for lbw, and have a cup of tea,' says Fuller. Sawyer goes back to her days of hosting 'cricket tea'. 'Me and my mum did cricket teas and I've got amazing memories from when I was a youngster. Two opposing teams coming together to have a cup of tea, eat together, and that has a sense of community that puts all kinds of competitive spirit aside for the moment,' she says. The contest started post-Covid since, during the 'social distancing' phase of the pandemic, the old tea tradition was being missed. 'You weren't allowed to prepare any food at the clubs. So everyone would come off the pitch and then disappear to their cars, eat their food. Largely, no one would speak to each other. I didn't like it at all. It felt very disjointed,' says Fuller. 'So when those pandemic time rules relaxed, it wasn't easy to find volunteers. But a lot of clubs in Yorkshire thought something needed to be done and it was important to have tea.' Sawyer says cricket teas are hard work and Fuller comes up with an anecdote to stress this point. He recently went to a small village club where England's brightest batting star, Harry Brook, once played. It proved a low-scoring match and resulted in panic in the clubhouse. 'I was in the clubhouse, seeing what was going on there. And the lady doing tea had to suddenly produce food for 20 to 30 people an hour quicker. Imagine a cafe or restaurant having to do that. But I kind of think people who do the teas are magicians,' says Fuller.

'By The Order Of...': Shubman Gill's Hilarious Post From Birmingham Goes Viral
Last Updated: Shubman Gill's Instagram post with Arshdeep Singh and Mohammed Siraj has gone viral ahead of the second Test against England at Edgbaston. India Test skipper Shubman Gill's latest Instagram post has gone viral on social media, where he is seen posing with Arshdeep Singh and Mohammed Siraj in a funny way, ahead of the second Test against England at Edgbaston in Birmingham, where India come 0-1 down in the five-match series. India lost the opening Test despite five of their batters scoring hundreds, as England chased down 371 in the fourth innings to take a 1-0 lead in the five-match series. Gill himself scored a century and all fans must have expected a brilliant start to his Test captaincy career, but that was not to be. But the star Indian batter was in a goofy mood as the team went around Birmingham. 'By the order of the cheeky blinders 😎," Gill captioned the post on his Instagram handle. Notably, the Peaky Blinders were a street gang based in Birmingham, which operated from the 1880s until the 1920s. The group consisted of young criminals from lower to working-class backgrounds. The story of this gang became popular across the world when a TV series was made on it in 2013, and even 12 years later, it remains one of the most popular series on Netflix. A movie is also slated to release on the gang. Meanwhile, Gill scored 147 in India's first innings total of 471 and just eight runs in the second innings. Gill admitted that the lower-order collapse in both innings did cost them during the five-wicket loss to England. India collapsed from 430/3 in the first innings to 471, losing seven wickets for 41 runs and in the second, they crumbled to 364 all-out from 333/4, losing six wickets for 31 runs. Playing his first Test as captain, Gill conjured up a sublime unbeaten 127 that was packed with glorious drives. India ended Day 1 at a solid 359/3, making the English attack look pedestrian. Notably, this will be the first time that Gill will be playing at Edgbaston and the pressure is expected to be a lot, especially while leading as well as handling the defeat of the first Test.

IND vs ENG: Veteran cricketer gives BIG advice to Shubman Gill ahead of 2nd Test, says...
Team India Test captain Shubman Gill. (PIC - X) New Delhi: Team India is under fire after the 5-wicket defeat in the first Test against England at Headingley, Leeds. Coach Gautam Gambhir's planning and Shubman Gill's captaincy are being criticised. It is being said about Gill that he did not use some bowlers properly on the last day of the match. If he had done so, the result of the match could have been different. England's team achieved the target of 371 runs on the fifth day at the loss of 5 wickets and took a 1-0 lead in the series. Shardul Thakur was failing in the 1st Test Indian star batter Ajinkya Rahane has asked captain Shubman Gill to give more bowling opportunities to all-rounder Shardul Thakur. Shardul's performance has been very poor during the match. He could score only 5 runs in both the innings combined. Apart from this, he got a chance to bowl in a total of 16 overs and he could take only two wickets. On his YouTube channel, Rahane explained in detail about Shardul's role. Ajinkya Rahane's advice to Shubman Gill 'I think the role of an all-rounder is very important. Shardul Thakur has been an experienced player and has done well in Test cricket abroad. I want to see more overs from Shardul. If the Indian team can use Shardul Thakur in a better way, it will be really great. What I have seen with him, he can swing the ball both ways and he is a wicket-taking bowler. If Shardul can bowl as the first change or even given the new ball, he can swing it both ways.' Former captain Ajinkya Rahane had a special plan Rahane suggested a change in bowling strategy to make Shardul more effective on the field. He said, 'The Dukes ball usually starts changing after 10 or 12 overs. If Shardul can start bowling with Bumrah and Siraj can come as a change, it would be great. I would like to see Shardul bowling more overs. Give him that freedom, he will get you more wickets.' Ajinkya Rahane praised Jasprit Bumrah Rahane, who won the Test series in Australia under his captaincy, said, 'Bumrah's five-wicket haul in the first innings was amazing. Apart from his five wickets, what I liked about Bumrah was his intent. The way he was running in his run-up. His intensity during his bowling was amazing. The line and length he bowled. He was aggressive throughout in his bowling approach. I would like to see support from the other end. Bumrah is obviously bowling at his aggressive length but if he can get support from Siraj and Prasidh, it will be great for him. You don't want Bumrah to come under pressure and start bowling too many overs and put pressure on the team.'
