<p>This episode we look at a <strong>Sachin Tendulkar </strong>and <strong>Mohammad Azharuddin</strong> moment in <strong>Cape Town</strong>. It was a short, brilliant partnership that inspired a book, so I got on one of the authors, <strong>Abhishek Mukherjee</strong> to take me through it. We talk about <strong>Azharuddin</strong> the batter, fast bowling and <strong>India</strong>, how cricket history is hard, where <strong>Sachin</strong> was at this point in his career, <strong>South Africa's</strong> relationship with <strong>India</strong> and how <strong>Nelson Mandela</strong> watched - and may have inspired - the partnership.</p> <p>-</p> <p>To support the podcast please go to our <strong>Patreon </strong>page. <a href="https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121">https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121</a>.</p> <p>If you like this podcast, you may enjoy other things I create, check them all out at <a href="https://linktr.ee/jarrodkimber">https://linktr.ee/jarrodkimber</a>.</p> <p>You can find <strong>Abhishek Mukherjee</strong> on <strong>Twitter</strong>: <a href="https://twitter.com/ovshake42%20">https://twitter.com/ovshake42 </a>, and his co-writer is <strong>Arunabha Sengupta</strong>, he’s at <a href="https://twitter.com/senantix">https://twitter.com/senantix</a>.</p> <p>Go buy the book: [<strong>Sachin and Azhar at Cape Town: Indian and South African Cricket Through the Prism of a Partnership</strong>] (<a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sachin-Azhar-Cape-Town-Partnership/dp/1785318195/">https://www.amazon.co.uk/Sachin-Azhar-Cape-Town-Partnership/dp/1785318195/</a></p> <p>This podcast is edited, mixed and produced by <strong>Nick McCorriston</strong>, he's at <a href="https://www.nickamc.com/">https://www.nickamc.com</a> and <a href="https://www.twitter.com/nickamc">https://www.twitter.com/nickamc</a>.</p> <p>The theme tune is by <strong>Red Crickets </strong><a href="https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets">https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets</a>.</p>

<p>This episode we look at <strong>New Zealand’s </strong>rise and the many things they got right along the way. So I figured it was only fair to get one of them to come on and tell me. <strong>Peter McGlashan</strong> was <strong>New Zealand’s</strong> limited overs keeper, and so together we look at the people and processes that changed New Zealand cricket. We discuss <strong>Taylor</strong>, <strong>McCullum</strong>, <strong>Hesson</strong>, <strong>Stead</strong>, pitches, <strong>NZ A</strong>, South African players and why <strong>Kane Williamson</strong> was a really annoying kid.</p> <p>-</p> <p>To support the podcast please go to our <strong>Patreon </strong>page. <a href="https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121">https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121</a>.</p> <p>If you like this podcast, you may enjoy other things I create, check them all out at <a href="https://linktr.ee/jarrodkimber">https://linktr.ee/jarrodkimber</a>.</p> <p>You can find <strong>Peter McGlashan</strong> on <strong>Twitter</strong>: <a href="https://twitter.com/PeterMcGlashan">https://twitter.com/PeterMcGlashan</a>.</p> <p>This podcast is edited, mixed and produced by <strong>Nick McCorriston</strong>, he's at <a href="https://www.nickamc.com/">https://www.nickamc.com</a> and <a href="https://www.twitter.com/nickamc">https://www.twitter.com/nickamc</a>.</p> <p>The theme tune is by <strong>Red Crickets </strong><a href="https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets">https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets</a>.</p>

<p>This episode is talking about two of the world’s biggest cheating scandals of modern times; the <strong>Houston Astros </strong>and the <strong>Australian cricket team</strong>. And while I knew a lot about one, the other was not as known to me, so here’s <strong>Ben Reiter</strong> from <strong>Sports Illustrated</strong> and <strong>The Edge Podcast</strong> to chat about it.</p> <p>In this episode we talk about the many similarities of the two scandals, the reactions, the hatred for the teams, how so few people were punished, what happens when standard cheating crosses the imaginary line to moral outrage, how funny they both were and we compare <strong>Faf Du Plessis</strong> to the <strong>Boston Red Sox</strong>.</p> <p>-</p> <p>To support the podcast please go to our <strong>Patreon </strong>page. <a href="https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121">https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121</a>.</p> <p>If you like this podcast, you may enjoy other things I create, check them all out at <a href="https://linktr.ee/jarrodkimber">https://linktr.ee/jarrodkimber</a>.</p> <p>You can find <strong>Ben Reiter</strong> on <strong>Twitter</strong>: <a href="https://twitter.com/benreiter">https://twitter.com/benreiter</a>.</p> <p><strong>Ben</strong>’s book ‘<strong>Astroball’ </strong>can be found here: <a href="https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/586547/astroball-by-ben-reiter/">https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/586547/astroball-by-ben-reiter/</a>.</p> <p>And his podcast <strong>The Edge</strong> is here: <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-edge-houston-astros/">https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-edge-houston-astros/</a>.</p> <p>This podcast is edited, mixed and produced by <strong>Nick McCorriston</strong>, he's at <a href="https://www.nickamc.com/">https://www.nickamc.com</a> and <a href="https://www.twitter.com/nickamc">https://www.twitter.com/nickamc</a>.</p> <p>The theme tune is by <strong>Red Crickets </strong><a href="https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets">https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets</a>.</p>

<p>This episode we talk about why <strong>Indians </strong>don’t bat left-handed. And so why not get on someone who has just written a book on this, with that as his very title. <strong>Nathan Leamon</strong> and <strong>Ben Jones </strong>have written a book called <strong>Hitting Against the Spin</strong>, and it’s basically the book you need to understand how cricket is currently played. But I got <strong>Nathan </strong>on to talk about the history of left-handers, anticipation skills, why off spinners are good, <strong>LBWs</strong>, umpires, outswing, and why left-handers were better against seam than spin.</p> <p>-</p> <p>To support the podcast please go to our <strong>Patreon </strong>page. <a href="https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121">https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121</a>.</p> <p>If you like this podcast, you may enjoy other things I create, check them all out at <a href="https://linktr.ee/jarrodkimber">https://linktr.ee/jarrodkimber</a>.</p> <p>You can find <strong>Nathan</strong> on <strong>Twitter</strong>: <a href="https://twitter.com/Numb3z?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor">https://twitter.com/Numb3z</a>.</p> <p>His book with <strong>Ben Jones</strong> can be found here: [<strong>Hitting Against the Spin: How Cricket Really Works</strong>] (<a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Hitting-Against-Spin-Cricket-Really-ebook/dp/B07PY4LD4V/">https://www.amazon.co.uk/Hitting-Against-Spin-Cricket-Really-ebook/dp/B07PY4LD4V/</a>).</p> <p>This podcast is edited, mixed and produced by <strong>Nick McCorriston</strong>, he's at <a href="https://www.nickamc.com/">https://www.nickamc.com</a> and <a href="https://www.twitter.com/nickamc">https://www.twitter.com/nickamc</a>.</p> <p>The theme tune is by <strong>Red Crickets: </strong><a href="https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets">https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets</a>.</p>

This episode we talk about Faf du Plessis, a central figure in modern cricket, but one who had to grind it out to make the top. So I got on the man who interviewed him most recently.

<p>This week we talk about <strong>Argentinian </strong>cricket. And luckily two men have just written a book called “<strong>Evita burned down our Pavilion</strong>” and I got one of them on to chat about it. <strong>James Coyne</strong> and I discuss how good <strong>Argentina</strong> were at cricket when they took games off <strong>MCC</strong> teams, why they were held back from <strong>Test cricket</strong>, and why the game didn’t spread like football and rugby did. We talk <strong>Evita</strong>, <strong>Plum Warner</strong>, <strong>Buenos Aires</strong> and the new rivalry coming out of <strong>Brazil </strong>versus <strong>Argentina</strong> in women’s cricket.</p> <p>-</p> <p>To support the podcast please go to our <strong>Patreon </strong>page. <a href="https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121">https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121</a>.</p> <p>If you like this podcast, you may enjoy other things I create, check them all out at <a href="https://linktr.ee/jarrodkimber">https://linktr.ee/jarrodkimber</a>.</p> <p>You can find <strong>James Coyne</strong> on <strong>Twitter: </strong><a href="https://twitter.com/coynejames">https://twitter.com/coynejames</a></p> <p>Or his co-author <strong>Timothy Abraham</strong>: <a href="https://twitter.com/timothyabraham">https://twitter.com/timothyabraham</a></p> <p>You can find the book here: <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Evita-Burned-Down-Our-Pavilion/dp/147213253X">https://www.amazon.co.uk/Evita-Burned-Down-Our-Pavilion/dp/147213253X</a></p> <p>This podcast is edited, mixed and produced by <strong>Nick McCorriston</strong>, he's at <a href="https://www.nickamc.com/">https://www.nickamc.com</a> and <a href="https://www.twitter.com/nickamc">https://www.twitter.com/nickamc</a>.</p> <p>The theme tune is by <strong>Red Crickets </strong><a href="https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets">https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets</a>.</p>

<p>This episode we talk about <strong>Aaron Finch</strong>, one of two accidental <strong>Australian</strong> captains. But perhaps the more interesting one. So I got on <strong>Melinda Farrell</strong> who wrote a piece on <strong>Finch </strong>recently.

<p>It’s quite possible you have never owned a <strong>T20 </strong>team, but you are probably still fascinated by how that works. So I went and got an <strong>IPL</strong> owner to talk us through the entire thing. <strong>Manoj Badale </strong>owns the <strong>Rajasthan Royals</strong>, and so we talked about how you make a team from scratch, the logistics of running an organisation suspended for spot fixing, his <strong>moneyball</strong> fandom, why the team is trying to be the global <strong>IPL </strong>side and the future of the league.</p> <p>-</p> <p>To support the podcast please go to our <strong>Patreon </strong>page. <a href="https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121">https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121</a>.</p> <p>If you like this podcast, you may enjoy other things I create, check them all out at <a href="https://linktr.ee/jarrodkimber">https://linktr.ee/jarrodkimber</a>.</p> <p>If you want to donate to the <strong>British Asian Trust</strong>, head here: <a href="https://www.britishasiantrust.org/support-us/covid-19/oxygen-for-india/">https://www.britishasiantrust.org/support-us/covid-19/oxygen-for-india/</a></p> <p>And if you want to know more about <strong>Manoj</strong>, pick up his book here: <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/New-Innings-Manoj-Badale/dp/1913568512">https://www.amazon.co.uk/New-Innings-Manoj-Badale/dp/1913568512</a></p> <p>This podcast is edited, mixed and produced by <strong>Nick McCorriston</strong>, he's at <a href="https://www.nickamc.com/">https://www.nickamc.com</a> and <a href="https://www.twitter.com/nickamc">https://www.twitter.com/nickamc</a>.</p> <p>The theme tune is by <strong>Red Crickets </strong><a href="https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets">https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets</a>.</p>

<p>Batting at four in a <strong>T20</strong> match is a horrible position, so I found someone who had batted pretty much everywhere in <strong>T20</strong> cricket, but spent most of his time at that hell position. <strong>Brad Hodge</strong> was in the first <strong>T20</strong> match, won the first title, and then played it up until a few years ago when he stated coaching and commentating on it. Here we talk about facing gun spinners, why many players want to move up the order, and why he would retire a player who is batting too slow.</p> <p>-</p> <p>To support the podcast please go to our <strong>Patreon </strong>page. <a href="https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121">https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121</a>.</p> <p>If you like this podcast, you may like the <strong>YouTube </strong>page <a href="https://www.youtube.com/jarrodkimberyt">https://www.youtube.com/jarrodkimberyt</a>.</p> <p>You can find <strong>Brad Hodge</strong> on <strong>Twitter </strong>at <a href="https://twitter.com/bradhodge007">https://twitter.com/bradhodge007</a>.</p> <p>This podcast is edited, mixed and produced by <strong>Nick McCorriston</strong>, he's at <a href="https://www.nickamc.com/">https://www.nickamc.com</a> and <a href="https://www.twitter.com/nickamc">https://www.twitter.com/nickamc</a>.</p> <p>The theme tune is by <strong>Red Crickets </strong><a href="https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets">https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets</a>.</p>

<p>This episode we talk about <strong>Barney Gibson </strong>who was the youngest man to play first class cricket in <strong>England</strong>. He played for <strong>Yorkshire</strong> at 15, and then at 19 he retired to run nightclubs. But we also discuss <strong>Mark Broadhurst</strong>, another young gun <strong>Yorkshire </strong>player who had an early end to his career and who spoke up after reading about <strong>Gibson</strong>. So I got on the person that kind of united them. <strong>Nick Friend</strong> has written the stories about these men. We discuss <strong>Yorkshire</strong>, teen prodigies, parenting, life after cricket, the yips, retirement and the nightclub chain <strong>Tiger Tiger</strong>.</p> <p>To support the podcast please go to our <strong>Patreon </strong>page. <a href="https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121">https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121</a>.</p> <p>If you like this podcast, you may like the <strong>YouTube </strong>page <a href="https://www.youtube.com/jarrodkimberyt">https://www.youtube.com/jarrodkimberyt</a>.</p> <p>You can find <strong>Nick Friend</strong> on <strong>Twitter </strong>at <a href="https://twitter.com/NickFriend1">https://twitter.com/NickFriend1</a>.</p> <p>His piece on <strong>Gibson</strong> is here: [<strong>The story of Barney Gibson, England's youngest first-class cricketer, who left the game for freedom</strong>] (<a href="https://www.thecricketer.com/Topics/features/barney_gibson_england_youngest_first_class_cricketer_left_game_freedom_yorkshire.html">https://www.thecricketer.com/Topics/features/barney_gibson_england_youngest_first_class_cricketer_left_game_freedom_yorkshire.html</a>)</p> <p>And the <strong>Broadhurst</strong> one is here: [<strong>Mark Broadhurst is ready to talk</strong>] (<a href="https://www.thecricketer.com/Topics/news/mark_broadhurst_interview_cricket_ready_to_talk.html">https://www.thecricketer.com/Topics/news/mark_broadhurst_interview_cricket_ready_to_talk.html</a>)</p> <p>This podcast is edited, mixed and produced by <strong>Nick McCorriston</strong>, he's at <a href="https://www.nickamc.com/">https://www.nickamc.com</a> and <a href="https://www.twitter.com/nickamc">https://www.twitter.com/nickamc</a>.</p> <p>The theme tune is by <strong>Red Crickets </strong><a href="https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets">https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets</a>.</p>

<p>This episode we have one of my favourite <strong>T20 </strong>players in the world to talk about his career so far. <strong>Colin Ingram</strong> has not had a straightforward career, at 23, he was without a pro contract and was thinking of going back to school to finish studying agriculture. But he stuck with cricket, and that seems to have gone pretty well. We chat about his <strong>ODI </strong>career, not seeing balls from really good bowlers, his premeditation, love of county cricket, being a <strong>Kolpak</strong>, and how he turned himself from a nurdler to one of the best <strong>T20</strong> batsmen in the world.</p> <p>-</p> <p>To support the podcast please go to our <strong>Patreon </strong>page. <a href="https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121">https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121</a>.</p> <p>If you like this podcast, you may like the <strong>YouTube </strong>page <a href="https://www.youtube.com/jarrodkimberyt">https://www.youtube.com/jarrodkimberyt</a>.</p> <p>You can find <strong>Colin Ingram </strong>on <strong>Twitter </strong>at <a href="https://twitter.com/caingram41">https://twitter.com/caingram41</a>.</p> <p>This podcast is edited, mixed and produced by <strong>Nick McCorriston</strong>, he's at <a href="https://www.nickamc.com/">https://www.nickamc.com</a> and <a href="https://www.twitter.com/nickamc">https://www.twitter.com/nickamc</a>.</p> <p>The theme tune is by <strong>Red Crickets: </strong><a href="https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets">https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets</a>.</p>

<p>This episode we talk about fast bowling and accuracy, and how we see a lot more of both now. So I thought <strong>Steve Harmison </strong>might be able to help us with that. Fast bowlers have become more accurate and faster. We have 90 mile an hour bowlers with knuckle balls and wobble seams now. So this episode we talk bio mechanics, actions, preparation short versus tall, white balls and we skip bowling to second slip.</p> <p>-</p> <p>To support the podcast please go to our <strong>Patreon </strong>page. <a href="https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121">https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121</a>.</p> <p>If you like this podcast, you may like the <strong>YouTube </strong>page <a href="https://www.youtube.com/jarrodkimberyt">https://www.youtube.com/jarrodkimberyt</a>.</p> <p>You can find <strong>Steve Harmison </strong>on <strong>Twitter </strong>at <a href="https://twitter.com/harmy611">https://twitter.com/harmy611</a>.</p> <p>This podcast is edited, mixed and produced by <strong>Nick McCorriston</strong>, he's at <a href="https://www.nickamc.com/">https://www.nickamc.com</a> and <a href="https://www.twitter.com/nickamc">https://www.twitter.com/nickamc</a>.</p> <p>The theme tune is by <strong>Red Crickets </strong><a href="https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets">https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets</a>.</p>

<p>This episode of Red Inker we look at the difficulties faced by <strong>Indian women cricketers</strong>. There is a book called <strong>The Fire Burns Blue</strong> all about this topic and so we got on author <strong>Karunya Keshav</strong>. We discuss players choosing marriage over a career, players choosing a career over marriage, and the few who have tried both. This is a story about women cricketers in India, but also the things they have to overcome. Societal pressures, miscarriages, working mother schedules, and so many other issues associated with being a woman athlete in <strong>India</strong>.</p> <p>-</p> <p>To support the podcast please go to our <strong>Patreon </strong>page. <a href="https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121">https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121</a>.</p> <p>If you like this podcast, you may like the <strong>YouTube </strong>page <a href="https://www.youtube.com/jarrodkimberyt">https://www.youtube.com/jarrodkimberyt</a>.</p> <p>You can find <strong>Karunya Keshav</strong> on <strong>Twitter</strong>: <a href="https://twitter.com/kuks">https://twitter.com/kuks</a></p> <p><strong>The Fire Burns Blue : A History of Women’s Cricket in India</strong> is here: <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07K2ZYHGT">https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07K2ZYHGT</a></p> <p>This podcast is edited, mixed and produced by <strong>Nick McCorriston</strong>, he's at <a href="https://www.nickamc.com/">https://www.nickamc.com</a> and <a href="https://www.twitter.com/nickamc">https://www.twitter.com/nickamc</a>.</p> <p>The theme tune is by <strong>Red Crickets </strong><a href="https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets">https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets</a>.</p>

<p>This episode is with <strong>Gareth Batty</strong>, who has been a professional cricketer in four different decades. I always say <strong>Batty </strong>is one of the most pro pros in cricket I have met. In this episode we talk about his family history in the game, <strong>Yorkshire</strong> spin, <strong>Brian Lara’s </strong>effect on him, how he tries to coach players, and how he’s kind of had everything <strong>English cricket</strong> can throw at a spinner.</p> <p>-</p> <p>To support the podcast please go to our <strong>Patreon </strong>page. <a href="https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121">https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121</a>.</p> <p>If you like this podcast, you may like the <strong>YouTube </strong>page <a href="https://www.youtube.com/jarrodkimberyt">https://www.youtube.com/jarrodkimberyt</a>.</p> <p>You can’t find Batty on social media, because he doesn’t like it.</p> <p>This podcast is edited, mixed and produced by <strong>Nick McCorriston</strong>, he's at <a href="https://www.nickamc.com/">https://www.nickamc.com</a> and <a href="https://www.twitter.com/nickamc">https://www.twitter.com/nickamc</a>.</p> <p>The theme tune is by <strong>Red Crickets </strong><a href="https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets">https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets</a>.</p>

<p><strong>Trevor Madondo</strong> was <strong>Zimbabwe’s</strong> first black batsman, but sadly, his career - and life - were cut short. It’s an amazing story and so I got on a man who has just finished an incredible long read on it. <strong>Liam Brickhill</strong> and I discuss <strong>Zimbabwe</strong> cricket, races, politics, drinking, <strong>Dave Houghton </strong>and so much more as we discuss the unfinished life of <strong>Madondo</strong>.</p> <p>-</p> <p>To support the podcast please go to our <strong>Patreon </strong>page. <a href="https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121">https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121</a>.</p> <p>If you like this podcast, you may like the <strong>YouTube </strong>page <a href="https://www.youtube.com/jarrodkimberyt">https://www.youtube.com/jarrodkimberyt</a>.</p> <p>You can find <strong>Liam Brickhill</strong> on <strong>Twitter </strong>at <a href="https://twitter.com/Gomorezvidinha">https://twitter.com/Gomorezvidinha</a>.</p> <p>His piece on <strong>Trevor Madondo</strong> is here: [<strong>The Life and Times of Trevor Madondo</strong>] (<a href="https://africasacountry.com/2021/02/the-life-and-times-of-trevor-madondo">https://africasacountry.com/2021/02/the-life-and-times-of-trevor-madondo</a>).</p> <p>This podcast is edited, mixed and produced by <strong>Nick McCorriston</strong>, he's at <a href="https://www.nickamc.com/">https://www.nickamc.com</a> and <a href="https://www.twitter.com/nickamc">https://www.twitter.com/nickamc</a>.</p> <p>The theme tune is by <strong>Red Crickets </strong><a href="https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets">https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets</a>.</p>

<p>Helmets are still not worn uniformly by batsmen in cricket, and that seems odd with everything we know about concussions and the death of <strong>Phil Hughes</strong>. In this episode, <strong>Snehal Pradhan</strong> - the former Indian cricketer - comes on to talk about the need for batters to wear helmets even when facing spin. We chat about <strong>Sultan Zarawani</strong>, <strong>Bermuda</strong> batters, <strong>Brian Close</strong>, <strong>Virat Kohli</strong>, freak accidents, concussion, helmet design, seat belts and how fast <strong>Snehal </strong>was.

<p>In 2003 I had never left <strong>Australia </strong>before, and I planned a round the world trip that would end up in <strong>South Africa</strong> for the <strong>Cricket World Cup</strong>. It was a life changing trip for me, and I’ve never really written about it. But cricket podcast emperor <strong>Subash </strong>has heard me talk about it, and so he thought it would make a good podcast. We talk about watching <strong>Michael Jordan</strong>, the price of Hockey tickets, a baseball fight, a pub called <strong>Belushi’s</strong>, a greyhound toilet, <strong>Andy Bichel</strong>, stealing from <strong>Andrew Symonds</strong>, spitting, <strong>John Davison</strong>, and the time I woke up <strong>Adam Gilchrist</strong> on a plane.</p> <p>-</p> <p>To support the podcast please go to our <strong>Patreon </strong>page. <a href="https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121">https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121</a>.</p> <p>If you like this podcast, you may like the <strong>YouTube </strong>page <a href="https://www.youtube.com/jarrodkimberyt">https://www.youtube.com/jarrodkimberyt</a>.</p> <p>You can find <strong>Subash Jayaraman</strong> on <strong>Twitter </strong>at <a href="https://www.twitter.com/cricketcouch" target="_blank">https://www.twitter.com/cricketcouch</a>.</p> <p>This podcast is edited, mixed and produced by <strong>Nick McCorriston</strong>, he's at <a href="https://www.nickamc.com/">https://www.nickamc.com</a> and <a href="https://www.twitter.com/nickamc">https://www.twitter.com/nickamc</a>.</p> <p>The theme tune is by <strong>Red Crickets </strong><a href="https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets">https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets</a>.</p>

<p>We talk about selections in cricket a lot. I can’t think of another sport that seems so focused on them, and yet we talk about the process of how teams are elected so rarely. So I brought on my former colleague <strong>Mohammad Khan</strong> to talk through how he believes teams should be selected, taking from his knowledge as a Wall Street Trader and someone who won the <strong>CPL</strong> as a general manager. We talk about the amateur days of selection, <strong>Fawad Alam</strong>, what an all-rounder is, our own personal depth charts and <strong>Merv Hughes</strong>.</p> <p>-</p> <p>To support the podcast please go to our <strong>Patreon </strong>page. <a href="https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121">https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121</a>.</p> <p>If you like this podcast, you may like the <strong>YouTube </strong>page <a href="https://www.youtube.com/jarrodkimberyt">https://www.youtube.com/jarrodkimberyt</a>.</p> <p>This podcast is edited, mixed and produced by <strong>Nick McCorriston</strong>, he's at <a href="https://www.nickamc.com/">https://www.nickamc.com</a> and <a href="https://www.twitter.com/nickamc">https://www.twitter.com/nickamc</a>.</p> <p>The theme tune is by <strong>Red Crickets </strong><a href="https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets">https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets</a>.</p>

<p><strong>DRS</strong> has changed how umpires make decisions, how TV companies look at the game and how batsmen bat. But there is still so much about the system that even the commentators themselves don’t seem to understand. One of the best writers on this is <strong>Kartikeya Date</strong> who has spent years trying to get to the bottom of how the ball tracking companies have worked out <strong>LBWs</strong>. On this episode we talk about umpire calls, the science and math behind the decisions, how teams are similar in their use of <strong>DRS</strong>, why the fifth day is terrible for reviews and lie detector tests.</p> <p>-</p> <p>To support the podcast please go to our <strong>Patreon </strong>page. <a href="https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121">https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121</a>.</p> <p>If you like this podcast, you may like the <strong>YouTube </strong>page <a href="https://www.youtube.com/jarrodkimberyt">https://www.youtube.com/jarrodkimberyt</a>.</p> <p>You can find <strong>Kartikeya Date</strong> on <strong>Twitter</strong> at <a href="https://twitter.com/cricketingview">https://twitter.com/cricketingview</a>.</p> <p>His piece on <strong>DRS </strong>is here: [<strong>On Umpire's Call</strong>] (<a href="https://cricketingview.substack.com/p/on-umpires-call">https://cricketingview.substack.com/p/on-umpires-call</a>)</p> <p>If you want more reading try these two pieces as well:</p> <p>[<strong>DRS: The Story So Far</strong>] <a href="https://redballdata.blog/2020/12/28/drs-the-story-so-far/">https://redballdata.blog/2020/12/28/drs-the-story-so-far/</a>&nbsp;</p> <p>[<strong>Decoding the DRS: Quantifying the impact of umpire’s call] </strong><a href="https://medium.com/kishan19/quantifying-the-impact-of-umpires-call-f00f7d1c80e0">https://medium.com/kishan19/quantifying-the-impact-of-umpires-call-f00f7d1c80e0</a></p> <p>This podcast is edited, mixed and produced by <strong>Nick McCorriston</strong>, he's at <a href="https://www.nickamc.com/">https://www.nickamc.com</a> and <a href="https://www.twitter.com/nickamc">https://www.twitter.com/nickamc</a>.</p> <p>The theme tune is by <strong>Red Crickets </strong><a href="https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets">https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets</a>.</p>

<p>This episode is about <strong>English </strong>spinners. Since <strong>Graeme Swann</strong> retired, <strong>England</strong> have tried 12 spinners. Many are batsmen who bowl a bit. Recently <strong>Geoffrey Bunting </strong>wrote a piece about <strong>English</strong> spin, the treatment of <strong>Jack</strong> <strong>Leach</strong>, and the reality of how little <strong>England</strong> seems to understand about nurturing the craft. We talk <strong>Samit Patel</strong>, <strong>Dom Bess</strong>, <strong>Moeen Ali</strong>, <strong>Gareth Batty</strong> and the “learn to bat” advice.</p> <p>-</p> <p>To support the podcast please go to our <strong>Patreon </strong>page. <a href="https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121">https://www.patreon.com/user?u=32090121</a>.</p> <p>If you like this podcast, you may like the <strong>YouTube </strong>page <a href="https://www.youtube.com/jarrodkimberyt">https://www.youtube.com/jarrodkimberyt</a>.</p> <p>You can find <strong>Geoffrey Bunting</strong> on <strong>Twitter</strong> at <a href="https://twitter.com/geoffreyreads">https://twitter.com/geoffreyreads</a>.</p> <p>His piece on <strong>England</strong> spinners can be found here: [<strong>Long Live The Kings Of Spain</strong>] (<a href="https://www.thefulltoss.com/england-cricket-blog/long-live-the-kings-of-spain/">https://www.thefulltoss.com/england-cricket-blog/long-live-the-kings-of-spain/</a>)</p> <p>This podcast is edited, mixed and produced by <strong>Nick McCorriston</strong>, he's at <a href="https://www.nickamc.com/">https://www.nickamc.com</a> and <a href="https://www.twitter.com/nickamc">https://www.twitter.com/nickamc</a>.</p> <p>The theme tune is by <strong>Red Crickets </strong><a href="https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets">https://freemusicarchive.org/music/Red_Crickets/Red_Crickets</a>.</p>
