The Final Word Cricket Podcast
Sports:Cricket
Season 1, Ep 2: Reloading lost episodes from the early Final Word, we're all the way back to our second episode ever. This came after Australia got shot out of the sky in Birmingham during the 2015 Ashes, for England to take a lead 2-1 with two matches to play. Geoff was joined by fellow writers Will Macpherson and Subash Jayaraman, with Adam absent at a wedding or something.
Hot quotes include Will: "If you can't enjoy watching Mitchell Johnson bowl at his best you don't actually understand this sport."
And Geoff, looking ahead to Trent Bridge: "Do you expect Australia to take advantage of a depleted attack?"
This season was originally recorded for the ABC - this is an edited and remastered edition.
