Essex County Cricket Cub is 150 years old. To mark the occasion, ceremonies were held at Chelmsford Cathedral and at Shire Hall in the city centre, the very spot where the club was born following a public meeting back in 1876.Richard Clarke aka "The Grumbler" was there to observe proceedings and in this chat, he gives us his thoughts.
It's January. It's cold. It's wet. There might be snow. ..Australia has won the 5th Test and wrapped up the series 4-1 to retain The Ashes. And just when you thought it could not get more depressing, reports have emerged of Harry Brook being involved in an altercation with a nightclub bouncer the night before an ODI against New Zealand in November. After all the hype and expectation, could this tour have gone any worse? I'm joined by cricket correspondent Evan Gallagher to pick over a disastrous tour.

Glamorgan has been promoted to Division One of the County Championship for the first time in twenty years. Club Chairman Mark Rhydderch-Roberts talks about a future full of opportunity after the new investment from Indian business in Welsh Fire. He spies a global spread for the county as franchise cricket dominates the cricketing landscape. He also talks about what non-host counties need to do to survive and preserve the domestic red-ball and T20 games survive into the future.
Highlights from Thursday's radio show on Phoenix 98FM, where we analyse the deep frustration and disappointing performance of England in the first two Ashes Tests. We compare that to a classic between New Zealand and West Indies, which was a proper example of how test match cricket should be played. Also a round up of the latest news from around the counties.*This is an updated version of the previous podcast which has a music copyright issue.
The 2026 fixtures for the County Championship, the One Day Cup and The Blast have been released and Leicestershire supporter Oliver Hawke joins me to give his thoughts and how he is already busy making arrangements to follow his beloved team across the country next summer.
With the shockwaves still reverberating after England's eight wicket defeat to Australia in the First Test, I got the views of some of the friends and collaborators of "98 Not Out" to try and make sense of what happened. Who is to blame and what have we learned? Indeed, what can we expect from the next Test at Brisbane and what are England's prospects for the rest of the series. Thanks to Mark Pougatch, Annie Chave, Chris Stocks, Ed Warner, Asif Tanvir and Richard Clarke for their participation.#Cricket #England #Australia #TheAshes #Perth
