“Warne would always put his hand out to the runners and say, ‘Hi, I’m Shane Warne.’ That tells you a lot. He never assumed anyone knew who he was.— Michael Atherton

Michael Atherton joins James Brayshaw, Matthew Hayden and Greg Blewett with England 2–0 down and under the pump.

• How he’s seen the first two Tests and where it has really gone wrong
• The truth about “Bazball” (and why the players never actually call it that)
• Whether Stokes and McCullum need to rein things in, or double down
• Jofra Archer’s pace, consistency and the criticism from Anderson, Broad and the Aussies
• Facing Glenn McGrath 19 times and knowing he “had my number”
• His affection for Shane Warne the broadcaster and bloke and the shock of his passing
• How he sees Test cricket’s future in an IPL-dominated world

Smart cricket chat, proper honesty, and a few very good laughs with one of the game’s sharpest minds.
