Season 9, Ep 11: First up this week listen out for an Urthboy giveaway. Geoff's new book is in shops across Australia and the UK, so we'll roleplay an interview. And so much cricket: Will Pucovski's injury, Maxi getting inside the Indians' heads, captaincy shuffles and Cam Green, tactical arguments, Test opening shuffles, England bailing from South Africa, Kane Williamson dominating the Fake Green Mamba, Jermaine Blackwood back on his style, some Glastonbury tinges to Nerd Pledge, and the Zoleo saves lives once again.
