    May 30 2025
    It's Story Time, our walk through cricket history via your listener quiz challenges. This week, almost silent and almost deadly, was Malcolm Marshall the best to ever fire down the ball at pace?

    At last, India's prince has come along
    May 27 2025
    Season 18, Episode 15: As England took care of Zimbabwe at Trent Bridge, India's new-look Test squad has arrived, with glamour option Shubman Gill leading the side, but we're much more excited about the comeback trail for Karun Nair and a first chance for our emotional investment, Sai Sudarshan. In other news, Big Ange is on the way out (not that one), Ireland are making runs, Hayley Matthews is screaming into the void, and The Dicks are together again for the WTC final.
