Ollie Robinson joins the show, Brook at three and England’s white-ball dominance

Mark Butcher, Matt Roller, Phil Walker, Jo Harman and Yas Rana discuss the England XI for Headingley, one that sees Harry Brook promoted to No. 3 and Chris Woakes and Mark Wood return to the XI.

Wisden.com columnist Ollie Robinson joins the show from 34:30 to give us a perspective on the second Ashes Test from the England dressing room.

Somerset’s Ben Green is another guest from the 1:07:31 mark. Green is the joint leading wicket-taker in the T20 Blast in 2023, playing a key role in Somerset’s outstanding group stage. The knockouts for the Blast take place later this week.

There’s also discussion on the first T20I of the women’s Ashes, West Indies missing out on World Cup qualification and Scotland’s excellent World Cup Qualifier campaign that sees them one game away from booking a place at the tournament in India later this year.
