Send your pictures of cricket bats and other cricket stuff in unusual places to king@kingcricket.co.uk. Feel free to put the cricket thing in the unusual place yourself.
Commander Brian Sausage got in touch with us to draw our attention to this.
It’s a creepy painting of Donald Trump in a cricket jumper.
According to Wikipedia, “The Visionary” supposedly depicts the insecure, small-handed, orange testicle wearing “a white tennis sweater” – but last time we checked, tennis players haven’t played in sweaters for about 70 years. So it’s a cricket jumper.
Commander Sausage also submitted this as a palate cleanser.

Remember that time Donald Trump tried to say “Sachin Tendulkar”?
“ In his 1997 profile of Trump for Playboy, Mark Bowden”. Who is this Mark? Is there a conflict of interest here? As patrons we are entitled to know.
No idea. Sounds like a ‘bow down’ Bowden rather than a ‘bow tie’ Bowden to us.
Put me off my lunch, it did. It’s taken me until after dinner to recover.
In particular that Trump/Tendulkar video is a sight for sore eyes. Sadly it won’t load from Cricket 365 any more, but here it is for those who haven’t seen it or want to see it again:

Modi’s facial expression for the rest of that video is worth the price of Patreon sponsorship alone.
Coincidentally, Uncail Marcas, a central character to some of my match reports and part of a Bob Willis-oriented subplot in the recent “Upper Compton” report…

…met Narendra Modi last year while in Gujarat. I’d put money on it that Modi would prefer to meet “Marcas” again than Trump.
No prizes for guessing who writes the headlines for our corporate blog:

That’s no fictional american politician in the tweet.
It’s Mionel Tribbey, the White House general counsel.
