Obviously just off camera just for time being we'll get to that in just a bit
because we're gonna have a six hitting competition. Welcome along Harry. Now
you've got Wembley, we have Lords. What do you think of our Wembley? Incredible
incredible honestly. We was actually lucky enough to come here before our
Euro game in last summer and have a walk around and see it and it's
incredible but just come here with the crowd yeah I'm excited. It's my first
ever cricket game so looking forward to it. What is your cricketing pedigree
other than getting knocked over by Joe Hart? Hart knocking us over in the gym
that's about it. The last time I've had pads on like this was when I was in
school. He bumped you first ball didn't he? He's got a good action. I think he plays
he's played a real high standard and I mean that was only a tennis ball with a
bit of tape on it and it felt like it was about 100 mile per hour so that was good fun.
How competitive does it get in there? Oh yeah 100% yeah all the boys me and Matt
especially going at it. We always want to warm up with football games. Do you
always warm up with career games? We're banned now. We're not banned but
you know we've had a change of management over the last couple years
and yeah we don't play as much. Who's the best cricketer in your dressing room?
Well now Hart was the best when we was playing a lot. I mean Ben Davies is
pretty good pretty consistent with bat and ball so I'd throw him in there yeah.
You haven't mentioned Matt. Matt thinks he's the best. I'm the best strike rate.
He's a flair player he said so we'll see today. Season got off to a good start
though. Yeah Chelsea on Sunday. Yeah big game on Sunday so great to get the
winning start on Saturday you know first game you always want to start well but
yeah it's a marathon this year we've got a lot of games. We've got the World Cup in
between. Really looking forward to it so yeah we're just taking it game by game.
And word on the Lionesses what a performance that was and how does that
go forward? How should that be taken forward? Yeah massive congratulations to
the Lionesses. I was lucky enough to be there and watch them bring it home and
win it. Incredible experience. Incredible for the nation. All the young boys and
girls watching. Yeah just aspiring to go out there and and try and achieve their
dreams. So great for football in general. Great for our country and yeah hopefully
plenty more success this year. Right should we get on this competition? Are
you more nervous about this or more nervous leading the side out of Wembley to the Euros?
I'm a lot nervous about this to be honest. Well get your gloves on. We're going to have a six-inning competition.
Nassar's going to keep. Matt can I come over and borrow you? What's your cricketing
pedigree? Have you played much? I have never really played cricket at all no.
Obviously I'm from Dublin so I just kind of grew up playing cricket in the house
with my brother. I don't know what it was. Ever since I came over to England I just fell in love with the game.
Well I bet Morgan's done all right. Yeah he did. He went and played for England
on Memphis didn't he? Now look I love all forms of cricket. Test match, IPL, the
one-day stuff. It's anything to watch I'll watch it. Competitive you'd say? Yeah.
A wager on this? We're good to go. No we haven't actually. You haven't? You don't want to set
one up now or do you want to leave it? Am I first? Who's first? Right Nassar is going to score you so if it
doesn't go all out the fence Nassar is going to score you and he's going to get
I don't know why he's going to try and give you some tips because he couldn't hit sixes but he might.
They can't stand there can they? Huh? Are they going to stand there? I think you might have to go
back a little bit. Back a little bit yeah. I think they want you to hit leg side
Matt. Going that way? Do you know it's easy wanting to start? Good hit.
That's what you're thinking. Be honest. Two scored. Two? That could have been out.
Didn't carry to the sweeper. Straighter, fielders underneath it.
You were an Arsenal fan growing up weren't you? Two scored.
Oh shot. That's better. That sounded good. That's got to be six. That's a six. Six scored.
That's a maximum. Ten off three. This could be out. He's lost it. Oh he lost it. One scored.
Eleven off four. Last ball of the five. Eleven off four. One to go. Oh shot. I tried to get it so hard.
How many does he get for? One scored. How many does he get for one of yours? One. Twelve off the five.
Twelve off five. Thirteen to win Harry. Is it hard or not? No. Have I got five balls? I have.
The last one I tried to hit too hard. Right. Come on Harry. Shot. That's a golf swing that.
Dropped. That's a good hit though. You've come back for two. They ran back for two. Two?
Did you get that out the middle of the bat? I think so. That'll do. Just give us your golf
swing Harry. Come on. Give us your golf swing. No that's plinked. Plinked.
One scored. It wouldn't have carried to the long boundary. You're in a bit of trouble here Harry.
You're in a bit of trouble. Three off two. Oh you've got a bit to do here Harry.
Oh along the ground he's rolled his wrist. Thought you'd throw that one wouldn't it?
It's a hard height actually. Two scored. Good running. Five off three. Watch out. Someone's
coming your way. What's the score Nas? Five off three. I think they're chasing ten. It was generous.
Oh yes. Down the ground. She's going to catch that. She's going to catch that.
Oh that's the London Spirit women fielding down there. One scored. One. One. It's not carried to
the deep there. That's six. Four. Four for a tie. Six to win. What are you giving? Proud reaction
tells you everything. Two scored. Two scored. Last ball. I'll give you a chance if you want.
Come on have another one. One each. One more each. Lead the way. I need it on the half volley.
Come on. Matt's going first. That's a good hit. That's six. If you put them in the thing that's
six. Come on Harry. That's a great hit. That's the best hit of the day. That is the best hit of the
day. Hang up. Hang up. Hang up. Into win. That's a good hit that. You're just not catching it right
H. Oh that's got to be it isn't it? We need another tiebreaker. We need another tiebreaker.
Hey I'm buzzing I hit the boundary. That didn't look like you caught that well. I technically hit
you didn't get that out the middle though did you? No. That was just straight.
Right coming in Matt. That's not getting there.
Oh go straight Harry. Go straight. Short of boundary straight. Just go straight.
Oh drag it. Bottom hand drag. Should we just draw it?
That was fun. Who takes bragging rights then on that? I think we've got to call it a draw.
We've got to call it a draw? All that for a draw? Yeah we both had some good some bad.
I mean I technically hit the boundary once. Well mine went over his head and rolled into the
boundary as well. Who's taking the bragging rights? We might have to look back at footage.
Yeah I need to see it back. I need to see it back. Nice to compete though. I was just thinking
about beating him the whole time. So yeah it will always be there. But I mean yeah. He's going to
critique the techniques of these two. What would you say? He's obviously a good golfer. He's got
a bit of golf in there and he's played a lot of cricket with the way he hits them to be honest.
I thought your throwing was a little bit off. Sort of waist high full tosses. Very talented. You
can obviously transfer skills from one sport to another Ian. Okay here's the six. Like that
technique? Yeah everything's good about that. Head still. Solid base. How far was it away?
Yeah pretty good. That's the longer boundary. Six given. Now he's critiquing your technique.
I would like you to have a look at Nasa's ball control. This was in South Africa a few years ago.
Doing a piece to camera. Oh I mean as long as you don't fall backwards then.
Any advice? Any advice? Any hope for him? You can give the advice.
Have another look just in case it gets better. There's not much to give.
It didn't go into order. Guys it's been great to have you along. Thank you so much.
They're gonna bat. Are you ready?
