2025/07/13

West Indies Australia Daily, 3rd Test, Kingston Day 1: Chaos, not from ball one, but certainly from session three. We thought the day-night match might be full of action, but even then, this was a lot. West Indies produced some moments of brilliance in the field and with the ball, but the Australian plan might yet work out.

2025/07/12

England India Daily, 3rd Test, Lord’s Day 3: A day when honours were literally even after the conclusion of India’s innings. How did two India batters get out for KL Rahul’s century? Ben Stokes is a big part of it. Jofra bowled his fastest spell on record, but for what reward? Ravindra Jadeja again contributes, before some finger-wagging and verbals between Zak Crawley and Jasprit Bumrah, with help from, well, the entire Indian team. Support the show with a Nerd Pledge

England India Daily, 3rd Test, Lord’s Day 2: The fast bowling head to head. How we've waited to see this. After a quiet first day, Jasprit Bumrah started his second day at Lord's with an almighty bang, once again showing what he can do. Then it was Jofra Archer's turn, after a thousand and more days out of Test cricket. What a ride.

England India Daily, 3rd Test, Lord’s Day 1: Finally, a day for the purists, with Bazball nowhere to be seen after England chose to bat. Stokes hobbled, Pope grafted, Bumrah threatened, Reddy delivered, and ladybirds invaded, while Joe Root inched closer and closer to a milestone. As in the classics, an absorbing day.

Oh, and the best in the world, Jasprit Bumrah, is also set to return with the series at 1-1. Will ball finally take the ascendancy over bat? And what do our co-hosts think about Wimbledon?

Season 18, Episode 21: The kids have taken over the classroom. Ben Jones joins Cameron Ponsonby in a rare double-guest-hosting of our weekly show. What to make of Wiaan Mulder’s declaration when in sight of Brian Lara’s 400*, and just how bold is saying he could have but didn’t want to? We swing by the County Championship and the Kookaburra ball experiment before also taking a look at just how cool MS Dhoni legally trademarking a nickname really is. The uncertainty in the Australian top-order won’t

England India Daily, 2nd Test, Edgbaston Review. Where does India’s onslaught of runs in the second Test leave England’s plans for the series and beyond? Ben Jones and Daniel Norcross run the rule over Shoaib Bashir, Josh Tongue and Chris Woakes’ place in the team, after Shubman Gill, with help from Jadeja, Rishabh, and Jaiswal broke records with the bat. Lord’s promises the mouth-watering return of Jofra Archer and Jasprit Bumrah – but who will he be sharing the new ball with? Could Akash Deep

A beautiful country, an ugly innings, after Australia set West Indies 277 to win, then brought the power of an all-time bowling attack to bear. And what of Nathan Lyon?

Questions aplenty for England – will they persist with Shoaib Bashir? Who drops out for Jofra Archer? What to do with the excellent Jamie Smith? India have their own selection questions to bring back Jasprit Bumrah. Listen to how the final day at Edgbaston sets up a belter at Lord’s. Cameron Ponsonby joins Ben

West Indies Australia Daily, 2nd Test, Grenada Day 3: A rare day in this series that felt like normal Test cricket, with a bit of rain slowing down proceedings, and Steve Smith looking at least half a million bucks until it ended.

England India Daily, 2nd Test, Edgbaston, Day 3: Six ducks, two doubles? Just about. It seemed we would get there during the monster partnership between Jamie Smith and Harry Brook, but nobody else could figure out how to score, while without Bumrah, the next-best rank tried their hardest in the form of Mohammed Siraj and Akash Deep.

England India Daily, 2nd Test, Edgbaston Preview: Whilst it’s only 1-0, there’s a sense that India needs a positive result out of this game, and since Bazball’s England doesn’t do draws, a win is the only option. How do they manage to ensure the series isn’t as good as over by Lord’s, and do it at a ground where they have never won? Jasprit Bumrah is the obvious choice, but should they also pick Kuldeep Yadav? It’ll be a pivotal Test for spinners as Shoaib Bashir and his tendency to leak runs will
