A cricket commentator has been training his daughter in his art form as part of her homeschooling, in videos which are drawing praise from the sporting community.

Mark Church is a freelance commentator who regularly works for the BBC – but with schools shut and sporting events postponed, he has a new co-commentator in the form of his 10-year-old daughter Isabelle.

The pair have produced a series of videos in which they share their take on classic cricketing moments as if they were live, including Ashes series and Test matches.

The dynamic duo now produce videos regularly as part of what Mr Church calls her "journalism and broadcasting course" while she is being taught at home.

"We've sort of got into a routine now where I'll in the morning think of what we're going to do, then I'll put a few pointers down for her and we always try and record it during her break in the morning," he said.

"We've got a slight journalism and broadcasting course! But also for her IT now, she's set up her own YouTube channel."

Mr Church has challenged Isabelle to hit 1000 subscribers on the channel, which is called #commentaryathome.
