One of the great Test series in recent history had a fitting end as India beat England on the fifth day at the Oval in remarkable fashion to claim a 2-2 draw in the series.

Jake, Nick and Will reflect on yet another pulsating Test match which ended with a one-armed Chris Woakes out at the crease doing his bit to try and help England to victory.

We look back on the series as a whole and rank each England players’ contribution against India and we also pick our moments of the summer.

With the India series now done and dusted, attention will swiftly turn to the Ashes. We ask how well prepared England are off the back of the summer.

Nick gives us this week’s minute monologue, and we answer your questions as always.

England remain 2-1 up against India after the fourth Test at Old Trafford ended in a draw.

Jake, Nick and Will unpack all the action at Old Trafford including the controversy surrounding India's refusal to accept Ben Stokes' offer of a draw and England's questionable behaviour in the aftermath.

We ask what has happened with the pitches throughout this series and who is to blame.

Ben Stokes became just the fourth Englishman to take five wickets and score a hundred in the same Test match, but does he need to look after his body better ahead of the Ashes this winter?

Plus, we ask if Joe Root can surpass Sachin Tendulkar as the all-time leading run scorer in Test cricket and we field all your questions as usual!

England have wrestled back control of the Test series with India after a tense 22-run win at Lord’s!

Jake, Nick and Will reflect on another eventful five days at the home of cricket and, in particular, another remarkable performance from England skipper Ben Stokes who inspired his side to victory yet again.

There's also high praise for Jofra Archer, who impressed on his return to the Test arena, and we ask if he should feature in the remaining two Test matches this summer.

It was another difficult match for Zak Crawley and the guys discuss if there's any chance of him being dropped for the remainder of the series.

Plus, we discuss Australia's record-breaking win over the West Indies after they bowled them out for just 27 runs.

And, we field all your questions as usual too!

Jake, Nick and Will reflect on a dominant win for India over England in the second Test at Edgbaston, which leaves the series finely poised at 1-1 heading into Lord's.

Ben Stokes' decision to bowl first backfired this time around and we ask if the England captain will be thinking differently ahead of the Third test.

We discuss the role of Shoaib Bashir and Zak Crawley in this England side after former England captain Michael Vaughan labelled the latter 'England's luckiest cricketer ever' in his Telegraph column.

And we also ask if now is the time to recall Jofra Archer with the fast bowler back amongst the England squad and fit for selection after four years out of Test cricket.

Plus, it's Nick's turn for a minute monologue and we field all your questions as usual!

England have taken a 1-0 lead in their five test series with India after producing yet another sensational run chase at Headingley!

Jake, Nick and Will reflect on an unforgettable five days of test cricket and give big praise to England's batting lineup, and in particular Ben Duckett who hit 149 in his final innings to steer England to victory.

There's also praise for Ollie Pope who bagged himself a century and justification for Ben Stokes after he won the toss and elected to bowl first.

As for India, we ask if they threw away more than one opportunity to win the test match and what changes they could make to win the second test.

We also ask why Headingley has not been considered for an Ashes test in 2027 and we answer your questions as usual!

A bonus episode from the Telegraph's Women Sport podcast.

Yvonne shares insightful perspectives on systemic sexism and the subtle language differences that perpetuate gender biases in sporting events. Stacey unveils her compelling research findings on entrenched misogyny among male football fans, emphasising the urgent need for cultural and institutional change.

We also hear from England cricketer Tammy Beaumont, who recounts her personal encounters with subtle and overt sexism, from ill-fitting men’s gear to harsh social media scrutiny driven by online betting culture.
