Episode 16 - U19 World Cup Final, Thomas Rew

Welcome back to the Sunday Service with Church and Vickers - we hope you’ve all had a peaceful cricketing week.This week, England's Young Lions were, regrettably, 'Sooryavanshi-ed'.But, with Churchy spinning his web on Test Match Special and Hector trying to spin one of his own from the ground, we thought it prudent to touch on the Under-19 World Cup as a whole.To help with this, we hear a snippet from Hector's interview with a young Thomas Rew - captain extraordinaire and future star - at training, less than 24-hours before the big finale.Thomas' rise to cricketing fame has been well documented, spending time with the England Lions and helping the senior team prepare for the Ashes at Lilac Hill. A recent stint with the Paarl Royals at the SA20 almost over-qualifies him for the World Cup, but the captain was happy to chat about future ambitions, the experience of World Cup cricket, and a bit about his teammates.Also on the episode, Church and Vickers continue their new segment - “Whose cricket book is this?” - and Churchy delivers a sermon comparing the Super Bowl to the super Vitality Blast.A huge thank you to Thomas Rew for joining us on this week's episode - a genuinely lovely guy and an even better cricketer. Although England's World Cup campaign fell at the final hurdle, every single player has shown some incredible promise.Another big thank you goes to our friends at Newbery Cricket, who have announced a SECRET SPECIAL prize for the months of February and March.Genuinely, this is one that you won't want to miss out on - with hints of; classic, iconic, and 'seriously good' wrapped into one fantastic prize.You can check out the premium equipment that Newbery has to offer here: https://newbery.co.uk/If you have liked this episode of Sunday Service, please make sure to rate and review us, and share us on social media platforms.Make sure to get in touch, we want to hear your cricketing thoughts and guest suggestions:Email us at: [email protected]‘X’ - sundayservice22
