Season 17, Ep 27: While the Champions Trophy semi-finals happen around us, Adam and Geoff try to stay focused on the rest of the week's matters at hand. Jos Buttler finally gives up the eternal sadness of England captaincy, Matt Kuhnemann gets cleared by the University of Western Australia (don't start with us), Cam Green is held back from the Shield, David Boon joins the CA board, Jimmy Anderson signs up for The Hundred, and Australia's women gear up for yet another tour of New Zealand.
