  • S3. E16. - Gladstone Small Talk

    After Lee's coaching exploits with the Brazil Cricket Women's team in Rwanda, we're back with a quick T20 to warm us up for some Test action. Hear from Lee as he talks through the tournament and what it's like to coach in a Super Over. Dave, with a gravelly/patch voice, is in the chair as Gary and Lee compete in the short form of the game. Dave would like to apologise to Lee publicly for getting a question completely wrong; see if you can spot which one.

    Rounds are:

    1. Gladstone Small Talk
    2. Different Stokes for different Foakes
    3. Morne Sporcle
