Why, why the change of name?
52:28
So the Hundred competition has had a huge shakeup from last year to this year.
52:32
So the teams that have been established since the tournament began in 2021, uh, were, were part sold, so sold to private ownership.
52:40
So various teams are part-owned by different private groups.
52:44
Uh, some have taken a hundred percent ownership, some part ownership.
52:47
So for example, if we look at the team that were the Northern Superchargers, they have been owned now by the Sun Group.
52:54
So they own a team also in the Indian Premier League.
53:56
What, what's the impact?
18:58
Mm
18:58
... and so effective.
18:59
Everybody should know this information.
19:02
Everybody should have access to this information." And that is when I decided I need to use this knowledge that I am gaining and all of this experience that I am now having the privilege to be able to access because I can see and feel how it is helping me as a person, and I want to be able to share that with others.
19:26
And, and we talk about, you know, on this we're here on Earth for a reason, we're here for a purpose, and sometimes it takes us a little bit of time to actually just realize what is our purpose on, on this Earth.
19:41
And I just felt that because of my journey and what I had experienced and what I was now experiencing, I want to be able to share that and hopefully help other people as well.

I'm Alison Mitchell, Test Match Special commentator.
29:13
Cricket teas are very evocative actually because my memories and, you know, my early cricketing upbringing, if you like, was around club cricket where my dad played.
29:22
My brother and I'd play on the edge of the boundary while the match was going on.
29:26
Mum, you know, in the classic way women often did, my mum was helping to do the teas, and so tea was what we would help out with.
29:33
It was where both teams came together around a table, despite what may or may not have happened on the pitch.
29:40
It's making countless, countless loaves of sandwiches.
24:12
Mitchell said her experts disagreed with Gretchen's theory that Nikki's death was a result of natural causes.
24:19
Dr. Downs, James Downs, testified that there, his...... uh, looking at the tissue in Nikki, he disagreed and said there was no pneumonia.

What was that based on?

The totality of the evidence at the original trial, post-writs that had been filed, and the hearings that had been held.
