Season 16, Episode 22: With Geoff marooned in Barbados because of Hurricane Beryl, we have Cam Ponsonby jumping into the co-host chair for the first time on a weekly show as attention moves to the various points of interest coming from the announcement of England’s revamped Test squad. There’s also India’s record-smashing women’s team, Rocky Flintoff, county cricket and Cam’s voicenotes to discuss. Later, why does the T20 World Cup loss hurt so much for South African fans? Journalist Dan Gallan joins the show to provide context from both sides of the boundary.
