England Captain Heather Knight
Fifty years ago this month, Britain faced its hottest summer on record, as welterweight champion Stracey met his match in Mexico’s Palomino, writes JOHN WIGHT.

KATHERINE BRUNT paid tribute to the resilience of England captain Heather Knight after her century helped wrestle back some momentum from Australia on day two of the women’s Ashes Test.
Knight spent more than five hours at the crease and hit 127 not out to help the tourists avoid the follow-on and close on 235 for eight.
