Week 14: 17 August - Greenock and North of Scotland

Update: 2019-08-11

Description

Tangents: AIF Soldiers going AWOL to fight for Sinn Fein in the Irish War of Independence, and the government conspiracy to cover it up. T20’s vanguard role in spreading cricket to the world, as discussed by self-described test snobs. Cricket’s role in high level international politics.

Corrections: I can’t confirm exactly how many balls per over would have been played in Greenock, but 6 was the common number at the time in Scotland.
