Episode 38: Bangladesh Play Test Cricket to Complete Famous Victory
from Slashing Through the Cordon · host Bill Peters
On today's episode of Slashing Through the Cordon, we talk about everything that is happening in the world of cricket, at home and abroad.On today's episode I discuss the fallout from Bangladesh's famous victory over Australia in the 1st Test in Darwin. In a match where Bangladesh played the perfect match of Test cricket, they blindsided an underdone and ill-prepared Australian team that looked as though they thought they just had to turn up to win.I'll look at the performance of the bowling quartet as well as Australia's faltering top order, discuss the pros and cons, as well as the decision to jettison Jake Weatherald and bring in Matt Renshaw for Mackay. If it all sounds a bit familiar, you are probably right.Questions are asked, and questions are answered. Hopefully it proves to be of interest to you cricket fans out there.For this and other podcasts, as well as receiving bonus exclusive content, go to my Patreon page at Metal Cavern Podcasting.Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/metalcavernpodcasting Email: billiscric[email protected]Twitter:@realmetalkevinBluesky:@metalkevin.bsky.socialInstagram: @metalcavernpodcasting @slashingthroughthecordonChapters00:00 Introduction to Slashing Through the Cordon03:03 Discussion of Bangladesh's Victory in 1st Test08:43 Talk of Australia's Bowling17:48 Analysis of Australian Test Top Six25:47 Can Australia Carry Two Allrounders30:27 Discussion on Selections and the Run of Favourites38:04 Test Prediction and Thoughts on Future of Top End Tests
