252. Can Australia Jag The World Cup? with Adam...

The Grade Cricketer ·

2023/10/31

We start this week's episode with a Crows Feet review of Stuart Broad's comments amid the chaos of Lord's, while promoting his new book. He's good, isn't he? The World Cup remains India's to lose, but are Australia showing signs of resurgence to the point where they could jag this thing? Warner's being a coat, the Bin Lid has whacked a couple of tennis balls, blokes are on the golf course and Punter is using words like deplorable! Looking good from here. Adam Gilchrist is on the show to discuss his

Adam Zampa joins us from his hotel in Dharamshala ahead of the crucial Australia v New Zealand World Cup clash. We talk about singing the national anthem, painkillers, how they're coming out, coffee, golf and celebrating releasing the world record for most runs ever conceded in an ODI.

251. Pumping Around, with Kim Garth, Tess Flintoff &...

The Grade Cricketer ·

2023/10/24

We are midway through the World Cup and it's fair to say that no one knows anything, none of it matters because India is a nearly unbackable favourite and the ICC are meeting at the end of the tournament anyway to decide the future of the format. Hope my team is good by the end of next week. Unfortunately Adam Zampa is not on the show, but Matt Roller from ESPNCricInfo is and he joins us from Bangalore in India to tell us how much air one can chew, if any of the teams near India are good and what

250. How Do You Beat India? with Shane Watson &...

The Grade Cricketer ·

2023/10/17

We’re back, baby! Yep, definitely. Australia’s off the mark, noses are harder, someone said “lift!” and now the Cup is surely ours. Sure, India appear completely unbeatable, but that’s their problem: no one wants to lead the Melbourne Cup at the first furlong (or some shit)! Shane Watson joins to add credibility to all of the above. Elsewhere, Bancroft and Renshaw record hundreds, Caleb Jewell is of interest, and Michael Neser is Australia’s best bat. The Women handle the Windies and the covers, and

249. Is Australia Cooked? with Jake Fraser-McGurk and...

The Grade Cricketer ·

2023/10/10

The thing that happened last is the thing that happens forever, so we write Australia off for World Cup '24, until the next show, next week. India are pretty good. So is South Africa and New Zealand. So, one game in, unfortunately only one spot remains. Before then, we meander through Shield and domestic matters, such as a heckler with a dildo and megaphone at the Shield and PlayHQ privacy options. Elsewhere, three anonymous Lord's blokes get absolutely dealt with, but one will be back for next

248. Is This The Last Serious World Cup? with Spencer...

The Grade Cricketer ·

2023/10/03

With the World Cup starting on Thursday, Australian domestic cricket once again commencing and, most importantly, Round 1 of "Premier" cricket getting underway, it's time for us to reflect on wasted Saturdays. Who will win the World Cup? Is it India's to lose? What hope does Australia have? Can England defend the crown? Should ODI's just be confined to World Cups? Incoming MCC President Mark Nicholas thinks so. Meanwhile Hayley Matthews plays one of the all-time great innings in Australia, scoring

The Grade Cricketer ·

2023/09/26

We’re back! Because when there’s international-cricket-with-actual-jeopardy, we can only kneel to hoover up these last remaining crumbs. Along the way we’ve also got Stokes selling salad stories and quoting Spiderman, lid-lifting about Bairstow and Piers gear, hard-hitting journalism about Modi’s India/Bharat and the BJP, and why the World Cup will be perversely good. New Zealand all-rounder and debutant Father Jimmy Neesham joins us to talk about light horses and environments, while CricInfo’s Alex

246. "Beers?"

The Grade Cricketer ·

2023/08/01

The Ashes: spirit, morality, tribalism, culture, Broady. He’s good, isn’t he? (Knows what he’s doing.) We take your visceral minutes. dribble about all (some) things Ashes, briefly talk about other cricket, and finish with a failure-inspired #AskTGC. Heartfelt thanks to everyone’s who’s supported TGC during this series. A deeply special one for us, though we’ll never admit that, as men. Anyway, 2-2: let’s all fuck off.

245. Retention and Carry-On

The Grade Cricketer ·

2023/07/24

Retain [verb]: continue to have (something); keep possession of. While England stroke their chins soberly, pondering morality and the impact of clouds on children, Australia’s grubby little convict mitts clutch the urn, with g-strings and court jester hats close by. Elsewhere, India dusts West Indies, Harmanpreet gets mist, Pakistan beats Sri Lanka, and Headingley helps a man settle his divorce.

244. The Truth of Cricket, with Alex Malcolm

The Grade Cricketer ·

2023/07/18

Major League Cricket is here and so is Zampa's reference to the 20th of April. Is it good? Are we watching? What does The Star Spangled Banner mean to powerplays? Australia have successfully retained the Women's Ashes, but this is of course not enough, despite it being good for the game. The best series ever though; Alyssa Healy thinks not. India absolutely smash the West Indies in the 1st Test. How will splitting up the islands benefit anyone? Do the West Indies just need to WANT IT more? Alex

242. The Colonial Leash

The Grade Cricketer ·

2023/07/06

We emerge from obstacles technical and travel to drag ourselves to the microphone for a late crack at the scenes from Lord’s. Danny Rood starts things off, before we pore over events legally, philosophically, sociologically, tribally, viscerally, clumsily, and in grade terms. Also, Stokes and Smith can play. Following a rare defeat at The Oval overnight, Alyssa Healy claims her team "is allowed to lose a game of cricket". Very interesting! Scotland look poised to hurdle the full-member only World

241. It's A Cult, with Barney Ronay

2023/06/27

We record this from The Oval in south London the day before The Lord's Test match, where anything can happen but one thing is for certain, this is very cult-like and we're having a nice time. Barney Ronay stops in to talk about the good things and the things we are allowed to question. What is tackles? What is Tongue? Speak in absolutes and with such certainty forever. Never change. Do push ups. We celebrate Ash Gardner's 12 wicket haul in the women's Test, the hopefully bright future of 5 day Tests

We come to you direct from Manchester, basking in the afterglow of a podium Australian Test win in the modern era. We skin the cat as many ways as possible, chronicling the feelings 24 hours post victory, where it ranks, the game itself, and what next. Inside that we cover Cummins, Springsteen, Uzzie, Gaz, Stokes, Robinson, Ponting, KP, other names that make us feel things, and your Visceral Minutes.
