196. The Ginger Century, with Liam Livingstone

The Grade Cricketer ·

2022/06/15

YJB was absolutely sensational, Root is the best player ever (at the moment) and Stokes is the captain that England need. But just how bad were New Zealand? Australia are doing good things in Sri Lanka, but will we remember any of this unless Tim David is selected and we feel safety in the size of the men that represent the country. South Africa are winning against India B, not that any of this matters, because the IPL rights just got sold for $5.1billion USD. Wouldn't mind a slice. Liam Livingstone

195. They're Still Booing Root, with Todd Murphy and...

The Grade Cricketer ·

2022/06/07

Is England back or was this 2s v 3s? Root's the best, Broad's vibrations, "team hat-tricks" are for children. Ali Martin lends much needed credibility to all of this. Australia plays Sri Lanka in the big one, same goes India and South Africa. 21 year old Todd Murphy was playing at Kahlin Oval in Darwin a fortnight ago, now he's in Sri Lanka with Australia - he joins us to detail his approach to bullying and aesthetics. The ICCs head honcho says Test cricket doesn't make heaps so, you know, be

The men don’t normally win those ones, the women keep winning, England sink further, the IPL is flashy colours and throbbers, Brett Lee talks wheels, circuits, and his podcast, Sweppo joins us from Lahore, and #AskTGC is about Father-Son penis politics.

191. Dearest Father, with Adam Zampa

The Grade Cricketer ·

2022/03/21

We preview the “grand final” between Pakistan and Australia, where events in Lahore promise to override anything that’s happened before (I think maybe Khawaja scored runs and he was born in Pakistan?). The women’s team continue to dominate but where’s the loss they “have to have”? West Indies and England play out a bore draw, but Kraigg Brathwaite’s Mum was there - confirming that Mum Stuff trumps Dad Stuff. Zorba returns to the show for a lengthy chat, maybe 18% of which is about on-field cricket

The Grade Cricketer ·

2022/03/17

Karachi was a classic rear-guard but many are still singing “Fucking flat-flat-flat” to the tune and cadence of Baby Shark (and that’s our problem), Babar’s no longer the tallest dwarf, Rizwan’s face is a yes from me, Happy enough with Australia, the SMH’s Tom Decent joins from Karachi, India brushes past Sri Lanka, Australia’s cruising at the Women’s World Cup, Beth Mooney joins, there’s more Root runs, Ollie Pope shouldn’t hide his nipples, Aaron Finch joins, and #AskTGC is about cosplaying grade

189. Your Tributes To Warnie

The Grade Cricketer ·

2022/03/09

We compiled your voice tributes to Warnie, it's there at the end of the show. Before then, Australia v Pakistan, India v Sri Lanka, Women's World Cup, West Indies v England, and other stuff that pales in comparison to the Warnie news. We also caught up with CEO of the ACA, Todd Greenberg, who was in Islamabad at the time of recording. His grade pedigree has shaped him well for the challenges of sports administration. The WiFi wasn't great, hopefully you can bear with it. Check out our Patreon

Warnie

The Grade Cricketer ·

2022/03/05

We got together for 30 minutes to remember Warnie, and to attempt some raw thoughts on how much he meant to us. It’s all still a bit surreal, but the urge was there, so we got in there. Thank you to everyone who submitted their own thoughts via social and via voice. There were literally many hundreds, we were blown away. We will comprehensively reflect these in an upcoming show, soon. Thanks, Pez and HiggosSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

187. Season Finale, with Shane Watson and Chris Rogers “Every week! Every week!” As we wind down the summer (there’s more cricket than ever) we start by exploring this profound quote in light of some more dark club cricket shit, followed by the lightness of Australia’s lead over England in the Women’s Ashes. Alyssa Healy gets the Women’s World Cup on TV, CA says no to Smith, Smith says yes to NFTs, South Africa sweeps India, and England posts the most one-sided one run win against the Windies

186. 4-0, with Simon Katich & Phil Walker

The Grade Cricketer ·

2022/01/17

The men's Ashes is over and we're all a bit sad, angry, pissed off, drunk and other visceral emotions. Cam Green's tall isn't he? Phil Walker dials in from The UK to give us some very visceral and poetic minutes. Kohli steps down as captain after not being reprimanded. The Big Bash is a domestic T20 League in Australia. The Under 19 World Cup is on and Higgos is living out his dream of batting 3 for Australia. Simon Katich is on to discuss playing with Usman at Randwick-Petersham and the future of

184. Omicron Here Now, with Steve O'Keefe

The Grade Cricketer ·

2022/01/03

Higgos and Pez have COVID. Was it worth it? Probably. The fallout from the MCG continues and there are still 2 Tests to go. Should Joe Root be captain? Does it matter? Will Scott Boland ever play again? Probably yes. Will Swepson play? Probably yes. Will the SCG spin? When was cricket good? Quinton de Kock has retired from Tests, so will this mean the end of civilised society? Hey, Devon Conway scored some more runs. He's good.

2021/12/13

Australia romp to a demon-arousing win at the Gabba and all of the nation’s sensory needs are met. We cover it all (selectively) in 40 minutes of visceral catharsis, which is then followed by the Visceral Minute. Copes then joins in, adding intelligence and knowledge, before our most in-depth analysis of the BBL, aka Blobby Season, to date. #AskTGC traverses first-borns, rhyming slang, and sad, wistful English people.

180. The Cricket Starts Now, with Ollie Pope

The Grade Cricketer ·

2021/12/06

The harsh blue (grey) hue of the Brisbane sky, blazing sun, golden sponsors and Cameron Green’s size means we’ve finally arrived at The Ashes. Pez and Higgos reject a cold, clinical look at form and instead go big on things like feeling, vibe, narrative, stereotype and jingoism – for the optimal way to enjoy the Ashes is to couch it in colonial, cultural terms, rather than anything vaguely objective or fact-based. As a result, we conclude Australia will cruise: despite not having won a Test series
