Radio 4 person just referred to 'England's encounter against New Zealand'.
Hate to be pedantic, but you can only have an encounter with someone. Against doesn't work.
Stokes & Atkinson had a nightclub encounter (allegedly) on Sunday night.

Can’t disagree. Massive hole in this England team nowThe media has absolutely loved tearing him down, even though he’s been the x-factor in a couple of World Cup wins (ODI and T20), and turned a boring, awful Test side into an entertaining, average one. A rare English player who enjoyed and thrived under pressure, and is probably a better bowler than batsman, even if his greatest feats have generally been with the bat.
Really, Rob Key and Brendon McCullum should be out of the door with him.

Has he got through?Unbelievable stuff at Wimbledon.
A British Wildcard, Arthur Fery, just beat the 9th seed in the quarter final in straight sets, winning the third 6-0.
That is absolutely insane.
The last wildcard to get this far was Ivanisovic who went on to win in 2001.
He didn't just sneak through, he was utterly dominant, calm and composed.
He was ranked 190th in the world at the beginning of the season.
Yeah he was absolutely dominant. I've not seen anything like it in years from a wildcard.Has he got through?
That's brilliant
Having a bit of a Raducanu moment, hopefully unlike her it won't be just a moment.
Been following this guy over the week but not had the chance to actually watch, may try and catch the semi
Not a fan of tennis really, but great to see a British underdog progress in such a manner. Good luck to him be great to see him go all the wayUnbelievable stuff at Wimbledon.

I remember watching Ivanisevic's epic against Henman. I was about 17 at the time, can't believe it was 2001. Fery wasn't even born!Yeah he was absolutely dominant. I've not seen anything like it in years from a wildcard.
I remember it too. Ivanisovic was that huge tall guys who could basically serve twice as fast as anyone else, right?I remember watching Ivanisevic's epic against Henman. I was about 17 at the time, can't believe it was 2001. Fery wasn't even born!
I think that was the year when Henman beat a young Roger Federer, who had already knocked out Pete Sampras. It was that long ago![]()
I haven't watched in a few years but I'm a sucker for an underdog story and also for British sporting successNot a fan of tennis really, but great to see a British underdog progress in such a manner. Good luck to him be great to see him go all the way
Yeah, I thought he was really boring but I've always disliked the massive serversI remember it too. Ivanisovic was that huge tall guys who could basically serve twice as fast as anyone else, right?

Henman was winning but the game was interrupted by several rain breaks. He would have won the match but for those rain delaysI remember it too. Ivanisovic was that huge tall guys who could basically serve twice as fast as anyone else, right?
But raised in England since he was 4 years old and he chose to represent the country in which he was raised. Good on him.Born in France to French parents.
His name suggests he may have come over after catching a large boat with only 50% of it's passengers onboard chap.Born in France to French parents.
