Sri Lanka's Way

Double Century with Jarrod Kimber ·

2021/08/27

We're back! This week is Sri Lanka’s turn beating England. By this point Sri Lanka were a World Cup winner, and still, England were only giving them a single Test. So they made that Test count in a style of their own making. - This podcast is brought to you by our supporters at Patreon, if you like what you heard here, please help out if you can over at https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121.

Season 3 postponed due to Injury

Double Century with Jarrod Kimber ·

2021/08/13

Bad news folks, Jarrod came off his skateboard on the way home from commentary on the England Vs. India Test Match last week, and has broken his arm, and Michael Clarke didn't even give him the chance to get ready for it. He is unable to write for the short term, and we are investigating options to allow us to continue. We'll be sure to let you know when we can get going again, we really appreciate your support and your listenership so far this season, which has been far and away our most popular

South Africa's Broad-Shouldered All-Rounders

Double Century with Jarrod Kimber ·

2021/08/06

This episode is focusing on when South Africa defeated England for the first time. It includes their first Test win, and then also their first series win. And what makes it all the more remarkable was how poor they had been before, how much wrist spin they had on their team and because the Boer War had only just finished. - This podcast is brought to you by our supporters at Patreon, if you like what you heard here, please help out if you can over at https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121.

When Scotland Swept England

Double Century with Jarrod Kimber ·

2021/07/30

This episode it is Scotland's turn. A proud small cricketing nation who has produced players for England, and then suddenly decided to grow themselves. We talk to Calum MacLeod, who made a few that game, on what turned out to be an incredible day for the team that always seemed to miss its chance. - This podcast is brought to you by our supporters at Patreon, if you like what you heard here, please help out if you can over at https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121.

Pakistan's Fast, Stylised Chaos

Double Century with Jarrod Kimber ·

2021/07/23

It is Pakistan's turn to defeat England, and as you would expect, this is fun. And they didn't beat any England team, but one of the best ever. It involves a family tension over the captaincy, ordinary batting, terrible fielding, and perhaps the greatest fast bowling weapon any team has started Test cricket with. - This podcast is brought to you by our supporters at Patreon, if you like what you heard here, please help out if you can over at https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121.

New Zealand's Greatest Draw

Double Century with Jarrod Kimber ·

2021/07/09

New Zealand had an incredibly tough run at the start of their Test cricket journey. So their biggest win over England wasn’t even a win. It’s when their 49ers came to England to draw the series, for respect. - This podcast is brought to you by our supporters at Patreon, if you like what you heard here, please help out if you can over at https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121.

When Kevin O'Brien Got Grumpy

Double Century with Jarrod Kimber ·

2021/07/02

Ireland have a long history in cricket, but their international journey is still new. And they have perhaps the most complicated relationship with modern England as their players learnt their craft in the county game, and the current England white ball captain is Irish. In this episode we focus on that incredible chase, but instead of me narrating it, we’ll let the Irish batters take you through it. - This podcast is brought to you by our supporters at Patreon, if you like what you heard here,

The Elephant at the Oval

Double Century with Jarrod Kimber ·

2021/06/25

India have become the most important team in cricket, but they certainly didn’t start this way. England and Australia barely played them, they struggled with fast bowling and the crowds of England were generally apathetic to them. And then the Oval Test happened. - This podcast is brought to you by our supporters at Patreon, if you like what you heard here, please help out if you can over at https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121.

#11 - Reversible

Double Century with Jarrod Kimber ·

2020/07/31

Fast bowling had two revolutions, one was at the head, and it's an often-told story. But the other was at the feet. This is the story of how Pakistan, and then everyone else, discovered reverse swing. Meaning the old ball will never be the same again. - This podcast is brought to you by our supporters at Patreon, if you like what you heard here, please help out if you can over at https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121.
