Season 10, Ep 2: The IPL has been cancelled, Sri Lanka won a Test series, and there was a bonkers county round. But honestly all we really want to do this week is hang out and chat with Elly Oldroyd. She's done everything as a sports broadcaster, from a dozen Olympics to Ashes tours and major tournaments, having blazed her way into the job on the BBC back in the 1980s and 1990s. She's also become the expert commentator for royal weddings and funerals. And she's got stories for days. Stop by and spend some time.
