Story Time 98 – Two wonders of Xenophon Balaskas
The Final Word Cricket Podcast · Adam Collins, Geoff Lemon
Show Notes
It's Story Time, our weekly walk through cricket history via your listener quiz challenges. On this episode, the greatest Greek to swing a club since Heracles - and why he's connected to current Sri Lankan Kusal Mendis. A book gift that led us to a forgotten off-spinner, a wicketkeeper who outscored them all, a team that didn't score any, and an Ashes hat-trick that one of us naturally did not see.
