Alyssa Healy & Adam Peacock are joined by Alex Carey ahead of Australia's World Test Championship final match against South Africa. We talk to Carey about his prep for the fixture, who he thinks should open the batting for Australia, what playing with Sam Konstas is like and how he feels the reception at Lord's will be after the Bairstow incident. Carey talks about the remarkable effort of the South Australian cricket side in their successful 2024/25 season, whether they can turn this into a dynasty and who the teams best celebrators were. Plus, Carey talks about his battles against batsmen such as Kohli & Marnus, facing bowlers like Bumrah, playing under Pat Cummins and gives some great advice for an aspiring 12-year-old keeper.
