I spend my time shocking the world. In my spare time, I do things they said I couldn't do. I also watch and play cricket, which is like the first two things.

Spencer Strider signed a contract extension last year with the Braves that will pay him an average of $12.5 million per year for the next six years. Haris Rauf won't make 12.5 million across his entire professional cricket career. But, hey, he's got that dangerous inswing baby!

Dominant display by Sri Lanka in a 10-wicket win v Scotland. Career-best 4-13 with the ball for Kaveesha Dilhari followed up by a bruising unbeaten 59 off 35 balls by Chamari Athapaththu takes SL past the target with 59 balls to spare, leaving no doubt who the tourney faves are.

Thailand have taken the pink out of their jersey scheme. They still wear it in their warmup gear but their jerseys are now more of a turqoise/teal faded blend.

Mookie Betts has a contract that will pay him an average of $30.5 million per year for the next nine years. Steve Smith won't make $30 million over the course of his entire professional cricket career. Real shame that Mookie can't hit sixes though, or something like that.
