This episode of Red Inker is where I get in a cricket podcast legend Subash Jayaraman to interview me. He wanted to talk about my love of Pankaj Singh, the Indian seamer. This is more than just Pankaj though, it’s about how we obsess over lovable losers. They guys who didn’t quite make it, they guys who did but left quick, the hard luck stories and grinders. We talk about other guys like Jamie Siddons, Mark Ramprakash, S Badrinath and Bryce McGain. We talk about the reason why these sorts of players stay with us, and also a little bit on Pankaj’s nipples.
