  • Episode 220

    It's one small step for the World Cricket Show, one giant leap for mankind.

    On the pod this week, Adam and Tony dip their toes into the murky waters of the fixing scandal. Just how damaging to cricket is Lou Vincent's testimony? At what point should we as spectators simply give up? And what should the authorities be doing to tackle the problem?

    Also this week:

    Adam's got a new career as a bingo caller

    Tony demands cheesecake

    Umar Akmal is only allowed one dish at his wedding

    A cricket ball reaches the edge of space

    Tony is a dead ringer for Future Biff

    All this and more on the latest edition of the World Cricket Show - the podcast that's recorded fast but built to last.

  • Episode 219 - England's Perfect Recipe

    Hot time, summer in the city.

    On the pod this week, Adam and Tony look ahead to England's international summer, as it kicks off in style in Aberdeen. The Test XI is more uncertain than it's been for a long time - should that worry England fans? Or should they be excited by the clean slate? Has Matt Prior done enough for a recall? And who on earth is going to be the spinner?

    In addition, there's discussion of Andrew Flintoff's rumoured comeback, Starc and Pollard square up, and Wirral CC get bowled out for 3 runs, attracting attention as far away as Australia.

    Also this week:

    Adam has another accent nightmare

    Contrasting plans for Liberation Day

    Wirral CC attract attention as far away as Australia

    Adam's developed an overnight love of baking

    Tony's not a fan of Adam's baking

    All this and more on the latest edition of the World Cricket Show - it happens to us all.

  • Episode 218 - Moores Moores Moores

    Please sir, can we have some Moores?

    On the pod this week, Adam and Tony discuss England's new old coach. Does Peter Moores represent a bold new era, or a backward step? Was the sacking of KP all about clearing the way for Moores? And does the pinching of Paul Farbrace from Sri Lanka leave a bitter taste in the mouth?

    In addition, they reflect on Jonathan Trott's decision to take another break from cricket, and try to make sense of the whole saga.

    Also this week:

    Adam can't speak Danish as well as he thought

    Tony has never forgiven Adam for betraying him in Risk

    A hug from Daddy calms teething George

    Tony's weekend was certainly busy, although it didn't involve any dinosaur costumes

    All this and more on the latest edition of the World Cricket Show - just listen to it, already.

  • Episode 217 - World T20 Review

    #OneBigPodcast

    On the pod this week, Adam and Tony reflect on Sri Lanka's magnificent victory at the World T20. What were the keys to their success? Did Yuvraj stuff it up for India, or was it all just down to some magnificent bowling. And as Sangakkara got his team over the line, could anyone have written a better script?

    In addition, there's a more general look back at the tournament. Does it go down as a classic? Did the ICC get the format right? And who's won a coveted place in Adam's Tournament Composite XI?

    Also this week:

    Fantasy league winners are announced

    Adam gets carried away at the World Cricket Show Final Party

    Tony goes off on one about David Cameron's Twitter account

    Goldeneye memories

    Unironic selfies

    Adam plots a career in Buzkashi

  • Episode 216 - World T20 Week Two

    If the England cricket team can phone it in, then so can we.

    On the pod this week, Adam and Tony discuss all the action in Bangladesh as the World Twenty20 reaches the business end. How are the semi-finalists shaping up? How did Sri Lanka manage to pull it back against New Zealand? Where have they been hiding Herath? And can anyone stop India?

    In addition, there's analysis of England's horror show against the Dutch. Where did it all go wrong? And can Ashley Giles possibly get the coaching job now?

    Also this week:

    Tony doesn't like April Fool's Day

    It's been a hard day's night

    Adam really ought to be some sort of tycoon

    Hang the DJ hang the DJ hang the DJ....HANG THE DJ

  • Episode 215 - World T20 Week One

    The World Cricket Show has got all the momintum!

    On the pod this week, Adam and Tony discuss the breathless opening to the World Twenty20. Which teams have impressed so far? What the blazes happened in that Netherlands v Ireland game? Did England get screwed over by the weather? Should the umpires have brought the players off earlier than they did? And who's going to make it to the semi-finals?

    Also this week:

    Adam lives the dream on Saturday nights

    Tony's fantasy league fortunes take a turn for the worse

    Beckham is funny in Peckham

    Adam's Twitter account takes off

  • Episode 214 - World T20 Preview

    Cricket! Cricket everywhere!

    On the pod this week, Adam and Tony look ahead to the World T20 (which has already started). Have the ICC got the format right this year? Is this the best way to involve the minnows? Should we even be calling them 'minnows'?

    There's then a painstaking team-by-team rundown of everybody's prospects. Have England ever had less of a chance at a global tournament? Are Australia the favourites? Or will West Indies defend their title?

    Also this week:

    Adam's struggling in the fantasy league, but he's obviously not going to whine about it

    Tony's doing well in the fantasy league, but he's obviously not going to gloat about it

    Sunday Walkies annoy Tony more than anything

    The whole thing goes super, super long

    All this and more on the latest edition of the World Cricket Show - the world's favourite cricket show.

  • Episode 213

    Sometimes we feel like throwin' our hands up in the air.

    On the pod this week, Adam and Tony reflect on Australia's landmark win in Cape Town. Just how exciting was that finale? Does this victory mean that they're the best team in the world? Or have they still got a lot to prove?

    In addition, there's discussion of Graeme Smith's retirement. He's had an extraordinary career - does he go down as an all-time great? And how difficult will he be to replace?

    Also this week:

    Tony hangs out with his showbiz chums in London

    Adam wishes he was in the Caribbean

    The fantasy league is open for business

    Tony gets to work on his new catchphrases

    All this and more on the latest edition of the World Cricket Show - we've got the love.

  • Episode 212

    A long time ago, we used to be friends....

    On the pod this week, Adam and Tony discuss South Africa's Alan Partridge-esque bouncebackability after their win in Port Elizabeth. Proof, if any more were needed, that they're the best team in the world? Did everyone get a bit carried away after Centurion? Is Dale Steyn one of the best of all time? And has a human being ever been as pumped up as he was on the final afternoon?

    In addition, there's a discussion of cricket and homosexuality. Steven Davies came out three years ago, but he remains out on his own. Why are there no other openly gay cricketers? Does cricket have as big a problem as football?

    Also this week:

    Adam is leaving the podcast

    Piers Morgan is joining the podcast

    Tony really doesn't like anything that's popular, ever

    Adam knows an embarrassing amount about Friends and Veronica Mars

    The pub quiz ends in predictable disappointment

    All this and more on...

    The World Cricket Show keeps rollin' rollin' rollin'

    On the pod this week, Adam and Tony discuss Australia's big win in Centurion. Is Mitchell Johnson even better than we thought? Do South Africa's struggles cast England's struggles in a different light? And does it all prove that the batsmen of this era simply aren't accustomed to extreme pace?

    In addition, there's analysis of Brendon McCullum's record-breaking triple hundred in Wellington. Has there ever been a more textbook captain's innings?

    Also this week:

    Tony still hasn't made the GB snowboarding team

    Adam doesn't like Limp Bizkit

    Everyone at school must have hated AB De Villiers

    A Curr gaffe leads the WCS management to issue a frank apology

    All this and more on the latest edition of the World Cricket Show - up to our necks in cricket.
