The Unplayable Podcast

A special moment for Afghanistan cricket who, eight months after they had their hearts broken by Glenn Maxwell's Mumbai Miracle, finally tasted success against Australia.

Gulbadin Naib was the difference with the ball while Marcus Stoinis and Rahmanullah Gurbaz had a fiery stoush that proved an entertaining sideshow.

Josh Schonafinger and Louis Cameron were at the wonderful Arnos Vale Stadium in St Vincent for the historic result.

Pat Cummins' hat-trick was the highlight on an otherwise uneventful match as the rain got in the way far too often in Antigua.

TUP regular Louis Cameron has been rested for tonight's episode, with popular journalist Bharat Sundaresan joining Josh Schonafinger to recap the match.

With all the chatter in the lead-in being whether or not the Aussies would tank, and therefore eliminate England, it was good to a quality cricket contest between Scotland and Australia.

In a perfect world, Jake Fraser-McGurk and Matt Short aren’t required for Australia at this tournament. 

They’ll be ready to go if injury strikes the main squad.

But for now, they’re enjoying the best the Caribbean has to offer and they sit down for a chat with Josh Schonafinger and Louis Cameron by the hotel pool in St Lucia. 

On the agenda is the IPL, golf, mullets and red-ball ambitions. 

NB: Unfortunately Jake's mic gives out bit towards the end of the chat, hopefully it's not too distracting!
