News about Ryan Sidebottom

On Wednesday, Jonnie Irwin enjoyed England's latest cricket match against New Zealand at The Oval. The beloved TV presenter, 49, went from ear to ear as he posed for a few Instagram snaps with his pals and bowling hero Ryan Sidebottom during the game. He wrote his latest article, 'Had the best day in awesome company thanks to @ryansidebottom_official and @engagegroup_uk, who made the entire experience a major highlight of my summer.'

Sam Curran's tournament haul of 13 wickets was the most by an England bowler at any T20 World Cup, defeating ten by David Willey in 2016, and then by Ryan Sidebottom - another left-armer, and Graeme Swann when England last triumphed the trophy in 2010. Since winning the trophy twice in 2012 and 2016, England became the second team to win it twice. Alex Hales' only one player in the World Cup had more sixes than the ten. Sikandar Raza of Zimbabwe managed 11, but from two innings more.

RICHARD GIBSON, KARACHI: Luke Wood began his international career this week with words of advice from the great Wasim Akram that are new to the memory. There could not be a more respected mentor for a left-armist than the former Pakistan fast bowler. 'As a child, I looked forward to his and Ryan Sidebottom, and I was lucky to meet him when I was over here in February,' Wood said, after a debut three for 24 in the first match of seven Twenty20 internationals here.'
