On today's edition of The Casual Mankadder, the past week has had its fair share of controversial incidents on the cricket field in the many varied varieties of the game. And while they have all been spoken about at length during the week, when it comes to adding my own opinion to the mix, I like to do it in this forum.

Whether it be Adam Zampa and his abortive attempt at the mankad, and whether or not it should be allowed (still! after all this time!), or whether it be about the use of technology to decide whether a catch has been taken by freezing one frame of the TV coverage, or whether a catch taken over the boundary should ever be allowed to be given as a dismissal, or how a day Test can continue to be stopped for bad light but a day/night Test can never suffer from this, or whether over rates will ever be fixed - all of that is discussed on today's episode.

So, if you are brave enough to har my right or wrong conclusions, come forth for a half hour of cricket expletives, right here on The Casual Mankadder, on the podcast that is still under Umpires Call, Thoughts from the Metal Cavern.
