    THE TEN MINUTE FORTNIGHT: An announcement about the next chapter in the history of the Gabba (play Olympic cricket there, then knock it down); Andy's summer begins when his county wallchart arrives.

    "My oldest daughter made a move for it, and while I am usually tolerant of her playing with my dearest property, in this case I had to say 'No, this is sacred stuff.'."

    FROM THE ARCHIVES (08'45): The India vs Pakistan bowl out - Kingsmead Oval, September 2007, inaugural T20 World Cup

    "It's a world cup match between two great rivals, but this whole bowl out has the air of a beer match."

    THE REVIEW (18'45): Cricket's Forgotten Team (2025)

    "When the Taliban took power, they had to find and destroy their scorebooks. No longer were these books a proud way of memorialising achievements of the past; they were incriminating documents that would lead to punishment."

    Recorded 25 March 2025
