120. Bubble Boys, with Jack Leach and Mitchell Starc

England claim the Wisden trophy 2-1 after some gorgeous, clean Ollie Pope runs, Stuart Broad’s 10-fa - thus taking him past 500 Test wickets - and Chris Woakes’ underrated salad. We're dissecting the Broad 'celebrappeal', if/when he'll go past McGrath and whether he catch Jimmy Anderson as the games highest ever pace-bowling wicket-taker.   BUT HE DIDN'T WALK!?   Rahkeem Cornwall didn’t do anything but we need to talk about one of the the ultimate rig-based selections. A man once scouted by the NFL and 2K gamers creating their own player now bowls off-spin and looks damn good doing it. Should be more of it.   Jack Leach is on the show from the bubble in Manchester to talk about the NHS and a surprising defence of his own rig.   Mitchell Starc is also on the show from a car in the northern beaches to discuss baiting Kohli, Warner’s TikToks and "Golden Balls" Cummins.   #AskTGC centres around umpires with criminal convictions, being called “daddy-kisser” by your beta friends, and what to do if a love interest asks if you like cricket.   Thanks to Budgy Smuggler..
