The fact that there was almost no interest in a series of cricket matches between Australia and England played over the past week is not necessarily a reason to go into all out panic mode, but it has to be a wake up call to everyone involved, most especially the International Cricket Council in regards to the scheduling of international cricket in an already overpacked market place, and Cricket Australia in their promotion of such series, and also where they should be played.

On today's podcast episode, we discuss the events of what occurred over that week of cricket, where England showed as much interest in playing more cricket as I do when surveying a plate of steamed broccoli, where the crowds were larger at Keith Grey Oval watching two Albion Park teams play each other, and how the series was as relevant as the Higher School Certificate will be for the kids who just endured it in about six months time.

That's the agenda on today's edition of The Almanack Report, right here on Thoughts from the Metal Cavern.
