Ashley Giles is the guest on this podcast. One of the heroes of the 2005 Ashes looks back on his exploits in that series during which a partnership with Kevin Pietersen at the Oval earned him the nickname 'George' - simpler than King of Spain which he was also ironically known as. Giles also reflects on darker times when he was England's director of cricket, looks ahead to this Ashes series and picks his all-time Ashes XI. The 2025/6 Ashes will be live exclusively on TNT Sports. To watch our special films of the 2005 Ashes go to https://youtu.be/GaPMtsF_Dcs?si=sqvv-ue_cEVhjacr #ashes #england #australia #2005
