Episodes

  1. We are gonna win 4-0

    It’s your final preview ahead of the 2021-22 Men’s Ashes.

  2. A Swig With Trig

    It’s GB News without a talking pint in sight. Plenty of 2021 T20 World Cup Chat. The long forgotten 2014 T20 World Cup gets some long overdue airtime. And a little bit of Ashes Fever to finish. No breaks. No intro. No Vince.

  3. It had been a while

    The Pinch Hitter Pod returns with a bit on the Hundred, lots on Liam Livingstone and even more on Collins Obuya.

  4. Edexcelling in Chennai

    It is nice to have Washington in your side, interesting Dom-darts, recency bias and a whole lot more

  5. 3 Screens of Heaven (3 Screens of Heaven)

    This podcast is arguably more positive than Mark Nicholas at his most positive. We even find a positive to the Abu Dhabi T10 League. Test Cricket is back on FTA TV!

  6. Garry, Gabba, Galle & Joes (Galle & Joes)

    A long journey to a build up to the second Test in Galle with a short stop in Washington and an extended stay in Brisbane. And as any good England cricket pod should, we spend some time in 2005 and 2010-11.

  7. A Better Cooked England

    It’s all about the Sri Lanka series with a little bit of Sydney chucked in there as well. What will make El Tel Aviv not hit snooze at 04:25?

  8. A Proper Pinch Hitter Ramble

    It’s the end of 2020 and cricketing spirits are in the sky. What’s more Michael Vaughan than Michael Vaughan? And when will we get 24 hours of Test cricket?

  9. We Are Not Going To Talk About Bad Light

    A new favourite web page, Fred Titmus, Broad shoulders and of course 713.

  10. Closing in on 713

    We Think Of Famous Terrys, Ask Where Did Ashton Agar Fit In and Begin To Believe That 713 Is Achievable...because it has to be

  11. Partnership Heaven & A Shrinking Fridge

    The First Bio-Secure Test has been and gone; England lose but that’s great for cricket; We go back to 1975; Look forward to 713 & consider leaving Broad out for the whole summer

  12. Cricket is back.

    It’s Christmas Eve aka the night before an intra-squad 3-Day game at the Ageas Bowl. We discuss Steve McManaman, the possibilities of Jonathan Bairstow becoming Cap 697 and the folly of a park & ride scheme

  13. Stalking Mark Stoneman

    We start by chatting about all the great cricket content out there at the moment, chuck in some trivia and Wikipedia, and then go Freddie crazy after he begins his Test career as a biffer who doesn’t really bowl.

  14. You Do Not Break An Unwritten Rule

    Cricket Without Crowds, The County Championship not in New Zealand, A Naughty Over That Was & A Left-Handed Ricky Ponting

  15. Through The RWT Key Hole

    It’s an impromptu mix of hot days at the cricket, very very cold days at the cricket and mixed in with the glory of name checking Jason Gallian & Carol Vorderman.

  16. Did You Know?

    It’s lockdown but that doesn’t stop us jumping on a delayed flight from Ghana with Alitalia whilst Alec Stewart conveniently gets out lbw.

  17. Cricket in the 90s

    New series with Opening Up, looking at cricket in the 90s. A detailed look at the front cover of Dermot Reeve’s book before we go off to Gladiators at the NEC for a game of The Wall.

  18. Self Isolating with Marcus North (and Monty)

    Coronavirus is at the crease and there’s not a lot of cricket going down. But there’s an over that was and Ian Smith’s World Cup commentary gets a hand-washing outing.

  19. A Heartbeat of a Hat-Trick

    We close off England’s tour of South Africa, fall deeper in love with CJ, return to January 1999 at the SCG & finish off with Belinda Carlisle

  20. High Fives with Corbyn & Sibley

    We flag up some memorable moments in the South Africa Test series before meeting the Experience Travel Group team and talking all things Sri Lanka. Then just when you think you can relax, Jerome Taylor rips through England giving them a kick up the arse and inadvertently sending them to no.1 in…

  21. The Battle of Boswell

    A third wheel, a 14 ball over & a major carbon foot print.

  22. Christmas Eve Part 2

    Part 2 of Christmas Eve

  23. Christmas Eve

    Christmas Eve

  24. A Pilot’s Pilot

    An experiment in cricket chat and everyone’s favourite hot potato issue of ‘Horses for Courses’
