Bbc World Service
About this episode

On this Stumped with Alison Mitchell, Charu Sharma and Jim Maxwell, we look back as Bangladesh shocked the cricket world beating the reigning World Test champions, New Zealand by eight wickets in the opening Test at Mount Maunganui. Former Bangladesh player Shahriar Nafees joins us to explain the significance of the victory - their first against the Black Caps in any form of the game. As England's struggles continue in the fourth Test at the SCG, we discuss the current coaching set up, and if any changes will be made, plus we discuss a dream return to Test cricket for Usman Khawaja as he hit 137 in the fourth Test against England, and we debate what the future holds for India bowler Shardul Thakur after his star performance against South Africa in the second Test. And we go from one Ashes to another, we head to Iceland to find out about the Volcanic Ashes cricket tournament and the nation’s bid to gain international status with the ICC.
