India-Pakistan cricket relations reach a new low
Description
Season 18, Episode 32: Despite all the political posturing, India and Pakistan are still playing each other in tournaments, currently the Asia Cup. But never before have the cricketers been used as an arm of government as extensively and explicitly as now. Also this week, domestic cricket starts in Australia weirdly early with the Dean Jones Cup, and the Aus A tour is underway, meaning the Sam Konstas will make the Ashes, Kurtis Patterson will make the Ashes, Brad Hope will make the Ashes, everybody is in! While Brendon McCullum ponders a possible new Test captain for England.
