SUMMARY: TWELVE games in, the latest edition of the 50-over cricket World Cup, WC23, was finally a go. With a star-studded line up of top Indian singers like Arijit Singh, Sukhwinder Singh and Shankar Mahadevan and a marquee clash of India and Pakistan, the new Motera resembled a colosseum. Which it truly wasn’t. Join Zainub, Murali, VaMu, Bisi, Iman and SamMo as they dive into the damp squib that was the game.

The gang this week decides to put on their combinatorics hats to work out multiple combinations for India in the upcoming World Cup, set to the sound of a million boxes being ticked at once. They are at sixes and sevens while trying to figure out the 7s and 8s for each team. There is incessant propping up of Ashwin but in kutti doses only.

Our friendly bunch of friends record this week's episode right after the India vs. Pak match in the Asia Cup ended as a damp squib. They waste no time in likening the proceedings in the first half of the match to a time and place they know in their bones. There's also some synchronized jaw-dropping when they realize that yet again, Pak pace is haal 100% in and of itself, and the Indian lower order is 'haal behaal'. Collective cheering also happens at the recent results in the

Big Cricket scenes are upon us again with the Asia Cup, the Asian Games, the ODI World Cup scheduled for the near future. This week's podcast has the five friends still feeling unsure about the ODI WC schedule and thinking about first world problems related to which credit card is better for which event - that conversation Ark is as "deluge-ional" as a certain Noah's jokes.

The group gets serious wondering whether Hardik is a good captain, until they realise that he's not even the captain any more. They also lament Indian cricket's lack of structure, unlike Australia and England. And they identify the man who may solve India's problems as team director - Ilayaraja. Hehe. Kidding

Ep 83: A Mukesh of Mistaken Identities

Bits and Pieces : The friendliest cricket podcast ·

2023/08/06

In Episode 83, our enthusiasm is undimmed by India's supremely sub-par showing in the Caribbean. As the BCCI continues to muck up the 2023 ODI World Cup, we remember previous better conducted cricket events, such as the Cognizant office tournament. We start talking about Mukesh Kumar, and end up making as many detours as possible, and finish by talking about Kuldeep Yadav, whose run of rotten luck continues thanks to the terrible puns we subject him to. In between times, a full week after the

In the very depths of hell, they say you find the ashes of the greatest sinners and their spirits left to wander. Quite the contrast to the last two weeks, where we have seen the very depths of hell in the Ashes while the greatest sinners are wandering instead quoting spirits (of cricket) after having lost every session, day and game with complete abandon. Bashball is the take English media won’t write because they are.. after all English, and the Indian media won’t do because they are too busy
