Season 13, Ep 26: With the ECB's hearing into Yorkshire's racism charges underway, we spend the second part of the show speaking to the reporter who has done more work on this story than any, The Cricketer's George Dobell. Before that, recording in Ahmedabad ahead of the fourth India-Australia Test, there have been fireworks in the early rounds of the Women's Premier League, Western Australia keep dominating the Shield, South Africa's quicks do the damage against West Indies, Bangladesh host England in ODIs, and we have an especially delicious link to our answer on Nerd Pledge.
