Australia wins by 360 runs. Warner has a tonne, Gaz has half a thousand, The Bison’s free, The Cartel’s purring. But what is Perth? Whatever you want it to be, I guess. A fortress. A money pit. A cyber cauldron. A shit tip. Thanks for coming anyway, Pakistan. See you on Boxing Day for nose exhalations, walking in and out of rooms, Blobbying our way through the three weeks of the year Australians let the cricket wash over them. And yes, the BBL is back. We have a new set, by the way. Aaron Finch is on the couch, talking World Cups, retirement, commentary, Hardik v Rohit, and sort of/not really getting dropped. Once that’s done, we return to the new set to discuss the looming IPL auction. That’s not to be confused with the mock auction. Talk about turning dolls over and going to work! Bulk Rupees for Starc and Head, one assumes. The women take on India in a Test starting at the Wankhede on Thursday. Yes, we call for shit tips. South Africa v India. West Indies v New Zealand. Jofra playing for his old club. AskTGC is about drugs, cover drives and simulated orgasms.
