The Final Word Cricket Podcast
Sports:Cricket
It's Story Time, our weekly walk through cricket history via your listener quiz challenges. This week, the creation and fate of the Adelaide Oval rollercoaster, and the rollercoaster that was the CAXI. A look at a West Indies star turn that did not belong to Brian Lara, the carnage of Argentina and Chile, Murali takes on a non-fave, and what truly constitutes a diamond duck, as Adam prepares his future best-selling book on Will Bosisto.
