About this episode

Why is George so pessimistic about the future of red ball cricket? Is there anything the non-Hundred hosting counties can do to survive? How big a mess is the Blast schedule and what can be done about that? Is 7000 at Lord's for the derby a worrying sign of things to come? Why have England gone in with two openers who bat at three and a number three who hasn't played and who might be injured anyway? Who did Harmy's son face in the nets this week? And don't forget ROTA WATCH!
