Jon Hotton joins Daniel Norcross to talk about his new book: 'Vinciness: The Unbearable Sadness Of Batting'.

Jon Hotton started his cricket journalism career when, in 2008, he started his blog, 'The Old Batsman: The Consolations Of A Cricketing Life'. Having previously published books such as 'Batt, Ball, and Field,' and, 'For The Love Of Cricket', Jon insists he writes for pleasure and not for profit. In his latest publication, he talks about the perils of being a batsman, through the lens of his writing infatuation, James Vince.

This interview was recorded at the Kia Oval during the lunch interval on Day 2 of the Rothesay County Championship fixture between Surrey and Sussex, on Saturday 2nd May 2026.
