The Sheffield Shield is back. We’re talking Neser 5s, Pope 5s, Siddle’s peroxide salad, Slug Webster’s Slug, Marnus hitting hundreds, Agar hitting hundreds but the main question is can we fuck the picket fence off to get the ball back?

 

Glenn Maxwell almost hits a 6 in the IPL and Sehwag doesn’t rate him, Kohli is good again - for now - Sunil Narine chucks, Ben Stokes is back and Jofra gets an Xbox.

 

And we’re talking an English invasion in the BBL this summer and what that’ll mean for Bairstow stories.

 

Adam Gilchrist is on the show to give his verdict on Ponting, Ashwin and mankads, to discuss winning 21 times in a row, captaining IPL teams, losing World Cup rings and checking the paper to see which grade teams made the finals.

 

#AskTGC involves Flintoff, Trump and tape ball, identity issues, how to get recognised in 5th grade.
