Cricket news and interviews from the ABC Grandstand Team.
Is Brisbane the Test that got away?
Teddy and Corbin break down the drawn Test in Brisbane. Yes, it rained a lot, but did the Aussies blow a chance to go 2 – 1 up in this series?Â
Is Adelaide the best Test venue in the world? We say yes!Â
Teddy and Corbin dive into Australia’s dominant win in Adelaide, and what it means for the rest of the summer.
All roads lead to Adelaide!Â
Teddy and Corbin prep for the second Test at the Adelaide Oval, and Ed tries his best to answer the question that every Australian batter is asking themselves right now, how do you face Jasprit Bumrah?Â
Well, that was a disaster.
Teddy and Corbin spend the entire episode dissecting one of the worst losses on home soil we’ve seen from the Aussie Test side in years.Â
 Buckle up cricket nerds!Â
Teddy and Corbin address the media storm that came for our pod last week, before diving headfirst into the opening Test in Perth.Â
Who’s under pressure, what can we expect from the pitch, and what can we expect from India?
We then find time to discuss Australia’s recent T20 sweep over Pakistan, the peculiar timing of the IPL auction, and much more. Big ep!Â
“Do you know what a selection when data doesn’t support your point of view is? It’s a guess.”
Ed and Corbin dissect the recent news that Nathan McSweeney will open the batting for Australia this summer. Will it backfire?
Finally, Australia was beaten by Pakistan in their recent ODI series. We ask the question, does anyone care?Â
Corby is back from his tour of the US, and the lads have a lot to catch up on!
Teddy tries to make sense of the recent ball-tampering allegations involving India A, before discussing the rapid rise of Nathan McSweeney in the race for a Baggy Green. Is he the right man for the job?Â
The lads then head overseas to try and make sense of what on earth happened in India, as New Zealand made history in Mumbai.Â
The Kiwis handed India a historic Test series defeat. Pakistan thrashed England. Those results might have Australian fans excited, but the Aussie top order is in desperate need of some time in the middle ahead of a massive summer. Who is winning the race for that final Aussie Test spot? Â Ed and Spriggy break down all the results, before looking at our own backyard.Â
Test cricket is alive and well!
Ed and Spriggy celebrate the week that was in Test cricket, because it was magic. New Zealand skittled India, and Pakistan conquered Bazball, and we watched it all.Â
There’s Shield action to dissect, and a failed World Cup campaign for our Aussie women. What went wrong?
That’s the question on every cricket fan’s lips today.
Ed and Spriggy react to the news that Cameron Green will miss the Aussie summer due to back surgery. Who takes his spot?
The lads also wrap what was a massive week in Shield cricket, our Aussie women are dominating the World Cup, and England take the p*** in Pakistan.Â
Lots to get stuck into cricket nerds!Â
We are the pod that never stops!
Brett Sprigg comes in at first drop while Corbin takes a break, and Teddy calls in from the Sunshine Coast.Â
We talk the Women’s T20 World Cup, Shield Cricket, and how the Aussie summer is shaping up.Â
