Round The Stumps Podcast

Get ready as the England white ball squads reconvene for three T20s and three ODIs against Sri Lanka to close out the summer. With injuries floating around the England camp, who will they play? Who will Sri Lanka bring to the British Isle and what is to be made of Kevin Pietersen's return to the England set up?

It's back to winning ways for England as the reset of the reset seems to have worked to perfection. Their four-string pace bowling attack is dominant as Jordan Cox and Dan Lawrence continue to give the England selectors a good headache to have. But what is going on with Pakistan with seven players dropped from the squad and the removal of their head coach ahead of the final Test? We chat all this and more in the latest Round The Stumps podcast.

I sat down with Liam Clarke, comedy cricket content creator, to discuss all things cricket. How did he get to run in the Vitality Blast Finals Day Mascot Race? What is his opinion on the effect of The Hundred on domestic cricket? And how did he react when the Brydon Carse news broke? We discuss all this and more in the latest Round The Stumps podcast.

With bat, ball and in the field, England were on top of the opening Test against Pakistan, showing just how clinical they can be in victory. We look over their impressive performance, players who might be in danger in the future and what we can expect from the second Test this week at Lord's.

Seven Tests remain for England before Australia travel to take on the Ashes next summer, and each of those seven tests is as important as the next. But a new coach - not yet with the squad - new captain, and still not having the desired 11 available to play leaves this series feeling a bit transitional.

There's been a lot going on in the world of cricket, so come and take some time with the latest Power Play Podcast to catch you up-to-date with everything that's been going on.

Ben Stokes has walked, Brendon McCullum has been stood down as Test Head Coach and England have just over a month to replace them both. It's all a bit of a mess for the ECB, and we sit down and try to work out what is next for the England Men's Test team.

Who do you think should be the next Head Coach and Captain for England?

The amount of firsts for India in this T20 series against England shows just how far the reigning world champions have fallen, and just how well England are doing in this format. Now ranked world number 1, England showed no mercy as they trounced India in a 4-0 series win, taking the series with a game in hand. In this episode, we look back over the series, some stand out performances and where it went wrong for India before looking ahead to the ODI leg of the series which gets underway on the 14th July.
