About this episode

Will England's big three ever make up for the 25/26 Ashes debacle? Will Indian cricket ever be free of political interference? Why is the 150th anniversary pink ball Test a 'stinker' of a decision? And was day four and five at The Oval in 2025 a perfect showcase for the very best cricket can offer?
