I had the pleasure of hosting Tony and Tracy Panecasio in Truro for a couple of days before they headed home at the conclusion of the Grey Ashes tour.

We took the opportunity to record an episode in which they reflect on the tour and recall some of the best non-cricketing bits including the places they've visited, the socials they've enjoyed and the people they've met.

Tracy also shares what it is like to be a WAG (Wives and Girlfriends) on tour - particularly when not knowing prior to the tour any of the other WAG's.

Tony played in every one of the five ODIs but also was the chief media correspondent for the tour, whilst Tracy took hundreds if not thousands of photographs so during their time here in Truro I encouraged them to turn it all into a book because a tour like this needs a book!

In the O70s Div 1 it was the final week of league matches with Div 2 and Div 3 as normal.

The fifth and final match in the Grey Ashes series ended in a last ball tie! The series thus finishes 2-2 which means Australia retain the Grey Ashes.

England batted first for the first time in the series and made 269. Then it rained, for a long time. Finally the Australian innings got underway with a DLS target of 194 in 26 overs.

At 7/2 the Aussies were in trouble but man of the series Darren Smith, who had cancelled his flight home because of the rain delay, strode in and made 97.

It came down to 7 needed off the last over and Kev Watson took wickets with the first two balls. 3 were needed off the ball and two made - so a tie!

Plus we round up all the matches played across the O70s 3 Divisions on Thursday July 24th and we catch up with Ron Hedley.
