Barest of Margins

The team return to round up the County Championship latest news and pick their 'Team of April'. Where to play the IPL, worst franchises of all time and Jofra's return to Hove are all discussed - as the delayed County cricket preview rocks up late, edges its third ball to gully and still doesn't pay its subs. Enjoy!

Rotation..rotation & Matt Parkinson. Shout outs for everyones favourite Lancs' leggy, decent knocks from Sam Curran 95*, and No.3 problems for England's T20s. West Indies captaincy, Essex finally get their overseas and why Jos Buttler should be replaced by Craig Kieswetter.

Team are back and chatting T20Is in India, England Women's success in New Zealand and funniest overseas signings ahead of the county season. There's news of RCB's big money signings to replace Josh Phillipe and a round-up of everyone's favourite comp - The Road Safety World Series. 

We break down England's loss in the Third test, and chat spins attacks for the fourth and final match of the series. Associate cricket takes us to Italy, whilst unpopular opinions takes us to Clive Tyldesley for the Hundred anchor and worst picks of an enthralling IPL draft! 

Barest Of Margins returns as when we do. This week, we look ahead to the second Test in India, how best to wind up Stuart Broad, and the panel give their T20 Squad "hot take". We also propose new formats for Dubai after the limited success of T10 and discuss county elevens playing pre-season matches against a team of washed-up celebs. A 42 year-old spinner also puts himself forward for the IPL draft.

After a short break, Barest of Margins is back. Down under, it's new year - same old Australia. There's reaction to India's heroics, Australian skipper woes and a look to England's mammoth year of test cricket - which starts with a two-test series in Sri Lanka. Cricket news includes "working class at Lords" and plenty of "Virat chat". 

Week two means more cricketing news to dissect. There's reflection of England's T20 series win in South Africa, JRoy's jitters and wicket-keeper batsmen/condiments called Phil. Kohli's daddy day-care and India's bowling woes are the talking points from down under. Also, chat the greatest cricketing shithousery of the modern era after England's dressing room cheat codes. 

In our first week, we look back on Mumbai Indian’s IPL domination...there’s reaction to Cricket Australia ripping up, gobbling and spitting back out the cricketing rule book for BBL10. Adam Lyth opened the bowling in the Pakistan Super League we ask what county cricketer is missing from the franchise circuit. And, finally, as a Kohli’less India travel down under, England start their winter tour with Covid Tests in South Africa.
