Bad news folks, Jarrod came off his skateboard on the way home from commentary on the England Vs. India Test Match this week, and has broken his arm, and Michael Clarke didn't even give him the chance to get ready for it. As such, we're remastering some older episodes. This week, we're featuring episode 17 with Tabraiz Shamsi, the South African left arm spinner who has had a great deal of success in recent times in the SA white ball sides. He comes on to talk about why he chose wrist spin, his mentor Imran Tahir, his different journey towards the top and the day he felt worthy when bowling to MS Dhoni.

We hope to be back with new episodes as soon as possible, please send your good wishes to Jarrod on social media.

This week we look at what the hell is going on with Sri Lankan cricket. Cause, it’s not going well over there. So I got on Estelle Vasudevan to try explain it all to me. We spoke about suspensions, coaches, captains, T20 Leagues, contracts, the invisible women’s team, and why the major changes to how SLC is run still haven’t happened.

This week on Wagon Wheel, Jarrod first gets a great question from one of our Patrons, and then answers live questions on Spotify Greenroom, including topics such as more on the difference between left and right arm wrist spin, Bangladeshi anchors, the depth of the Indian batting line up, and how we almost lost a lot of Australian cricketing greats to other sports.

Watching the first match of the Hundred, it occurred to me that the standard of women’s cricket had improved so much that it barely registered this was a domestic game. So I went and got myself a veteran domestic women's player to talk about it. Izzy Westbury played for Somerset, Middlesex and the Dutch teams before becoming a cricket writer. On this chat we talk about the little changes in the women's game, what drawbacks professionalism has, gender pay gap, growing new markets, how the athleticism has changed, and why women's cricket has improved so much that Izzy wouldn't get a game anymore.

This episode is with Stuart Meaker, who burst onto English cricket with pace and outswing, took the wicket of Virat Kohli twice, and has been fighting to get back to what he once was ever since. In this episode we chat about pace, outswing, struggles and the moment when it all comes back again.

This episode we talk about how for the first time in history Test averages have dipped below ODI averages. Recently I found a really good blog on it, and so I got the author to come on. Daniel and I talk about pitches, balls, the talent gap, the divergence of the formats, and the wobble seam ball.

This episode we look at a Sachin Tendulkar and Mohammad Azharuddin moment in Cape Town. It was a short, brilliant partnership that inspired a book, so I got on one of the authors, Abhishek Mukherjee to take me through it. We talk about Azharuddin the batter, fast bowling and India, how cricket history is hard, where Sachin was at this point in his career, South Africa's relationship with India and how Nelson Mandela watched - and may have inspired - the partnership.
