DJ and Ashwin get together this week to discuss the shocking and unexpected defeat of Team India by Temba Bavuma and South Africa. The World Test Champions, despite looking down and out at stumps on Day 2, managed to use their spinners to great effect and win by 30 runs.

They discuss the pitch conditions and whether India went too far in favour of spin, Shubman's Gill's injury and what it means for the approach to Guwahati where India will be desperate to tie up the series.

They also talk through some of the significant IPL trades that were announced this week, including a Jadeja-Samson swap!

Varun and Ashwin get together this week to talk about India's anti-climactic 2-1 victory over Australia in the T20 series, as 2 matches got completely rained out. With 10 games to go before the T20 World Cup, selection questions remain in the form of Harshit Rana vs. Arshdeep Singh, Shivam Dube vs. Hardik Pandya and what role Rinku Singh plays in the team.

In the second half, they talk about India's wicketkeeping dilemma for the upcoming 2 tests against South Africa - While Rishabh Pant walks into any test team, Dhruv Jurel has made a huge statement in the India-A series, and would justify a spot in the side too.
