Story Time 293 – Cricket and the Belgian World Expo of 1910
It’s Story Time, our weekly walk through cricket history. This week, did we imagine that an answer intended to begin in Yorkshire would wind up at a World's Fair before the First World War? We did not, but the Belgians got more than they bargained for. Also this week, a proper Dusty Old Bastard from the biggest series of all, and a nostalgia fest for those of you who own two albums by The Knife.
