May 16, 2020 137: Brad Hogg - I looked at myself in the mirror and thought 'you've got to change your ways'
Former Australia international with a combined 145 caps for his country and countless T20 franchise games around the globe, Brad Hogg is the guest on the Podcast. Hoggy takes on the Cricket Badger 20 Questions and chats about plenty more besides.

The evergreen 49-year-old has an undying enthusiasm for the game and now plies his trade as a commentator and YouTuber where his knowledge and passion for the sport shines through. Although try to tell him he is a former player!

Hoggy chats to James Buttler about his life and times in cricket, the state of the world game and his battles with his demons down the years. It is a wide-ranging chat, sometimes serious, funny and emotional. A must listen.

May 12, 2020 136: Keaton Jennings - "It's an incredible sport and it's given me so much as a person and a player"
England and Lancashire batsman Keaton Jennings takes on the Cricket Badger 20 Questions in this edition of the Cricket Badger Podcast.

The 27-year-old opens up about his 17 Tests, the highs and lows in an England shirt from a debut Test ton to being bamboozled bu Jasprit Bumrah. He speaks about wanting to add to his caps, the frustration of coming home early from Sri Lanka because of Covid-19 and how he has used lockdown wisely to continue his studies.

In a full and frank chat, Keaton gives some honest answers and refuses to disclose the player that hung from a chandelier in a victory celebration. He discusses growing up with a former player, Ray Jennings, as a father.

A player who loves the games, always has a smile and is known as a great team man, Keaton is a very welcome guest on this edition of the Podcast.

May 10, 2020 135: Phil Salt - Watching the Ball and Reacting as he takes on the World
Sussex batsman Phil Salt is the guest on this edition of the Cricket Badger Podcast. The 23-year-old opener and keeper has starred for Sussex and played T20 tournaments with the Sharks, Lahore Qalandars, Islamabad United, Adelaide Strikers and Barbados Tridents. He has been been included in an England T20 squad but is still awaiting his international debut. With the World T20 approaching (at some stage) he could break into that squad at a very exciting time.

In this chat we discuss Sussex, working with Jason Gillespie, the impact of Covid-19 on his summer, his willingness to learn, England hopes, his experiences around the world and how he wants to keep things simple and not look too far ahead.

A terrific young talent, a thoroughly nice fella and one to watch over the next few years. A pleasure to have him on this edition of the Cricket Badger Podcast.
