On this episode of The Cricket Podcast the boys cover all the Test cricket currently happening in the world. First up, and joined by Cameron Ponsonby in Antigua, they talk about England's tour of West Indies. Was a draw a fair result? Was this progress for England? Did Root disrespect the men in maroon? Later they talk about Australia in Pakistan, they appear to be in a great position, but did they need to bat again. India were also in action, versus Sri Lanka, although a dubious pitch meant that didn't last very long. It probably only sped up the likely result though, so maybe that's a good thing. And finally they cover England women in New Zealand for the World Cup. Three successive defeats has them staring down the barrel of the gun of elimination. Bad news.

India's search for an away win in South Africa is in the balance as another thrilling day of test cricket. There was everything, excellent bowling from South Africa's seamers with Rabada on red hot form, Pant smashing only a hundred he could manage whilst India lose their minds with an overturned DRS decision.

Australia, meanwhile, are hunting another 5-0. Australia declared late on day four to leave England a total of 388 to win.

That is until Stokes and Bairstow got together again to slow Australia down and bring the draw into the match. With things looking safe Pat Cummins brought himself on to bowl a magic spell, ripping into the England lower order. Boland continued his insane start to Test cricket taking the wicket of Bairstow, before Leach and Broad inched England towards the draw.

The 2021/22 Ashes series is underway, as The Cricket Podcast boys get together to recap day four of the second Test between Australia and England.

Max is joined by Cameron Ponsonby for a melancholic look at the 4th day's play at Adelaide. The day went pretty much as expected, but the journey there was at least an interesting one. Root took the ball to the unmentionables (twice), Ollie Robinson bowled off spin, Dawid Malan got Marnus Labuschagne as first test wicket, and England briefly looked all right with the bat. But it was the same old story by the end, as Root fell last ball to Mitchell Starc to leave England with no real hope of batting out the final day. The only question is, how long will it all take?

The 2021/22 Ashes series is underway, as The Cricket Podcast boys get together to recap day one of the second Test between Australia and England. Entering day 3 of the day/night Test, England will need to hope that they are in a good position to level the series. Australia, on the other hand, will want to ensure their good start wasn't wasted and will be looking to go 2-0 up. On the day England started with hope, as Root and Malan built a fine partnership before the first break. However the afternoon session was a disaster for England, as they collapsed to leave Australia on the verge of 2-0. Despite a comedy David Warner run out late in the day, it was another one to forget for England. The Ashes are now surely lost. Join us for the best analysis and reaction around!

The 2021/22 Ashes series is underway, as The Cricket Podcast boys get together to recap day one of the second Test between Australia and England. England struggled badly for runs in the first Test, so will need to make sure that they put up a score this time around to stay in the Test. Meanwhile, Australia, under Steve Smith, will be relying on their inexperienced bowling attack to produce the goods. At the end of play, the Australian bowling attack had fired, as Rory Burns failed again. And earlier on the Australian batters piled on the runs, with Labuschagne reaching 100 and Steve Smith adding 90 himself Can put some decent first innings runs on the board? Will Australia's inexperienced attack be a problem tomorrow? Is this Test already over? Join us for the best analysis and reaction around!
