Sound quality is not great in my view
most honest conversation I've heard so far RE ENG red-ball collapses & Joe Root's replacement.
Good stuff and always worth a listen. Badly let down in just one respect - absolutely dreadful sound quality when the team chat over their phone :(
last year my daughter tour the UK playing cricket, we had an amazing time, training at the rose bowl, playing on beautiful grounds and the hospitality was billiant. I hope know one in Australia reads this but now I'm fascinated with English Cricket . Love the podcast well done thanks Dean
Enjoyed meeting you on the train on way back from London. Make sure you give John and Russell a mention next time 😊
