Tom Moody on the season so far!

Send us Fan MailIn this episode we chat with Director of Cricket Tom Moody who reflects on the campaign so far and looks ahead to the team’s next match, against the Gulf Giants, at the Dubai International Stadium on Friday the 12th of December, a 6.30pm start.Tom talks about what’s pleased him and what hasn’t so far. There’s plenty of good stuff to look back on, of course, off the back of four wins from four matches but, as Tom tells us, there’s also plenty to improve upon. Tom speaks about the return of Lockie Ferguson as captain after the fast bowler missed the first three matches of the tournament, he discusses the batting and bowling and also gives us an update on the fitness of Andries Gous, after the wicketkeeper-batter was forced to retire hurt in the most recent win, against MI Emirates in Abu Dhabi. Andries’ replacement behind the stumps was Vriitya Aravind, and Tom discusses his role in the side, as well as conditions across the three venues. He also talks about the moment that’s provoked huge discussion in the cricketing world, the decision by MI’s Nicholas Pooran not to stump Max Holden in the Vipers’ last match, and Tom chats, too, about how the team will look to keep their collective feet on the ground after the flying start to this season’s action.https://www.thedesertvipers.comhttps://twitter.com/TheDesertVipershttps://www.instagram.com/thedesertvipers/https://balqiscapital.com
