Episode 9: 1st Test Follows Script but Windies Rookies Impress

On today's episode of The Casual Mankadder, we dissect the outcome of the 1st Test of the two Test series between Australia and the West Indies which was completed in Adelaide this week. Despite the final result being one that even my daughter that ignores everything to do with cricket could have predicted, the West Indies have unearthed another two or three promising young cricketers who all performed above expectations in this match. We discuss the implications going forward, and how the team can perhaps improve. Australia's controversial change in selection policy dominated the media airwaves in the lead up to this Test. We talk about how they performed in a dominating victory, and just what it means in the short term. Then we look forward to the 2nd Test in Brisbane, and just what may happen in the pink ball day/night Test considering the six and a half sessions it took to get a result in the 1st Test. That's the agenda on today's episode of the podcast that is as dodgily solid as a Cameron Green forward prod, The Casual Mankadder.
