About this episode

Michael, Phil and Ben unpack England's humbling defeat to South Africa and discuss whether it is a wake up call for their aggressive approach or simply a blip that Brendon McCullum needs to forget.

The guys are joined by former Proteas skipper Graeme Smith, who says McCullum's tactics are not sustainable at the highest level. 

Smith also gives his verdict on England's struggling opening partnership and his plans to revolutionise T20 cricket in South Africa.

Phil gives us the latest from the Hundred and we discuss the upcoming Ben Stokes documentary.
