81 All Out - A Cricket Podcast

A tragicomedy called 36 all out

Listen Later

We process India's 36 all out in the Adelaide Test. Was it a tragedy? Or a dark comedy? Is it even something that can be explained?

Talking Points:

  • The visceral shock that accompanies a rapid collapse
  • Pain, grief, and decades-long hurt
  • How does the emotional reaction to 36 all out compare with 81all out?
  • The deadly duo of Cummins and Hazlewood
  • How cricketing narratives are so batsmen-focused
  • The role of luck in every single cricketing event
  • The great Indian heartbreaks from years past
  • Chennai '99, Kolkata '99, Barbados '97
  • The discourse that accompanies a batting collapse - and how it has changed over time
  • The urge to find a scapegoat
