The Final Word Cricket Podcast
Sports:Cricket
Season 15, Episode 15: The Perth Test is coming, and once again the local authorities are apparently worried about whether people will show up unless JL waves the sceptre. One person on the way out is WACA boss Christina Matthews, soon to end her long tenure. Shan Masood makes a double ton as Pakistan's new skipper while Matthew Renshaw tons up in the PM's XI runfest. Rain wrecks the Big Bash, Amazon hoovers up yet more property with a broadcast rights deal, Lou Vincent gets a reprieve, and there is damp cricket from all over the world.
