In 2007, Jarrod Kimber started a blog called Cricket with Balls. Over the last 12 years he has graduated to writing features, books and match reports, made documentary films and worked as an analyst and a manager in T20 franchises. I invited him to talk about cricket writing today. We ended up with not only a tour of landscape of cricket writing, but also some lessons in how to become a cricket writer. Apart from writing, Jarrod also conducts his course on sports writing: Fans With Laptops, which is a course in using your passion for sports to improve how you write. This conversation was recorded on November 20, 2019.
