The Final Word with Toby Roland-Jones
Season 20, Episode 1: A new season brings new faces and fresh storylines. But it’s also a time to admire those who have been on the circuit for a long time, dedicating themselves summer after summer. Heading into his 17th professional season, a man who has done this with distinction for Middlesex is their big quick and standard-bearer, Toby Roland-Jones. A decade on from his magical hat-trick to win the county championship on the final day of the season at Lord’s, he’s still charging in and making it count. In this chat, he charts the highs, including a remarkable start to his Test career, and the lows, when his body limited that England stint to just one summer. A fine bowler and great guest.

S19 Ep 39New Aussie contract list braces for Test overload year
Season 19, Episode 39: It’s our season finale for the Australian cricket season of 2025/26, with a cracker of a Sheffield Shield final run and won over five days, and a new Australian central contract list moving well away from white-ball formats and investing everything in the extraordinary glut of 21 Tests between this August and the following July. Also this week, separate administrator madness in both Pakistan and India, an all-time performance in the women's game, and more discontent with Brendon McCullum is part of the many stories bubbling away in England before the new county season.

S19 Ep 38The Final Word with Sam Cook - A change is gonna come
Season 19, Episode 38: It’s impossible to avoid more investment in some players’ stories. One for us has been Essex and England seamer Sam Cook. Hs Test debut was a triumph for everyone who believes that hitting the same spot while nipping it around is worthy, regardless of the speed gun. He did so in all conditions for his county and banged down the Test door. That first game at Trent Bridge audition wasn’t enough to keep him there through 2025, but he’s determined to give himself every chance of this year being his, after the season begins on Good Friday.

S19 Ep 36Cricket Australia to sell the farm? The moment of truth
Season 19, Episode 36: Geoff and Adam are back together at last, after weeks of travel difficulty, and a huge news week means a two-part weekly show. Later this week will come the two-day meeting between Cricket Australia and the state associations to decide whether they should go ahead with trying to sell off the Big Bash League. Of course most involved have spent months positioning the conversation to make sure that happens. Is anyone against it, and has anyone given proper weight to the likely drawbacks? This week we get into the matter in depth, as well as more of the amateur-hour stuff we've come to expect from New Zealand Cricket, and some strange moves in the Australian women's team.

Deano's World XI stunner: 30 years to the day, with his son Koby
Season 19, Episode 35: It was on this day, 21 March 1996, that Dean Jones stepped out in front of his adoring MCG crowd to play against the Australian team that he was so unlucky not to be picked in for the World Cup. The century that followed, in most challenging of conditions, was a marker of just how good he had been since selectors dropped him. Two true believers who were there that afternoon, Adam Collins and Shannon Gill, are joined by Deano’s teenage son Koby Hamilton-Jones to discuss what the innings meant to the man himself, and to those so invested in his trailblazing career.
