It's the Ashes!

Adam & Tony bring you the ultimate preview of the 2025-26 Ashes, answering all the big questions. Do England actually have a chance? Are Australia over the hill? Will Root score a hundred? Will Bashir take a wicket? And will we manage to stay awake to see any of it?

Plus, thoughts on England's low-key preparations and TNT's planned coverage, and we make promises we almost certainly can't keep about Ashes Daily.

All this and more on the World Cricket Show Ashes Preview.

Adam & Tony discuss two things: the 2005 Ashes, and the Hundred. One they like, one not so much. No spoilers which is which.

20 years on, is 2005 the greatest series of all time? Could another series ever be better, or is that physically impossible? And how many Bazballers would get in the 2005 side?

Adam & Tony deliver the definitive Verdict on a truly breathtaking Test series between England and India. The best series since 2005? Was 2-2 a fair result? And is this England team still going in the right direction?

Plus, thoughts on Root's new records, the fantastic Sky coverage, and the deeply affecting tributes to Graham Thorpe.

Adam & Tony discuss the drawn Test at Old Trafford, another fantastic instalment of an enthralling series between England and India. How did India pull off the great escape? Did England let them off the hook? And, with the Oval imminent, who's got the momentum?

Plus, thoughts on the 'beef' at the end of the game. A stain on Stokes's and England's reputation? Or a big fuss about nothing?

Adam & Tony unpack India's mammoth win at Edgbaston. Is Shubman Gill having a Graeme Smith summer? Are England bad again? Do they need a whole new bowling attack? And should this be the end for Shoaib Bashir?

Plus, important updates on Guernsey's quest to qualify for next year's T20 World Cup.

Adam & Tony reflect on a magnificent Test match at Headingley. Records tumbled as England chased 370 on the final day - how do they keep making these extraordinary chases seem so routine? Has Duckett become one of the best players in the world? Has Pope put the Bethell debate to bed? And how do India bounce back from here?

Plus, some final thoughts on the World Test Championship, after South Africa pulled off a historic win in a practically perfect final.

Adam & Tony look ahead to Australia v South Africa at Lord's - the third edition of Test cricket's showpiece event. Are Australia big favourites? Are South Africa lucky to be in the final, or actually a better team than some think? And is the World Test Championship fit for purpose, or is there room to make it better?

Plus, thoughts on England's resounding win over Zimbabwe. An innings win inside three days, but lots to ponder - has Ollie Pope done enough to keep his place? And how worried should we be about Stokes's siege mentality?

Adam & Tony deliver the definitive preview of the one-off Test between England and Zimbabwe. It's Zimbabwe's first Test in England for 22 years - can they give the home side a run for their money? How will England's new-look bowling attack fare? And will Richard Johnson have anything to say about it?

Plus, we speak to author Tim Wigmore about his fantastic new book, Test Cricket: A History. Tim talks us through the twists and turns of the game's evolution (including how Argentina nearly became a Test powerhouse), and sets out his vision for the future. How can we fix the World Test Championship? And will that be enough to keep the game alive?

Adam & Tony discuss Harry Brook's appointment as England's new white-ball captain. The right choice? Or another case of overburdening your best player? And what was going on with all that chat about Ben Stokes?

They also try to make sense of the IPL as it stumbles towards the halfway stage, and give a few suggestions for improvements that will doubtless be welcomed by the organisers.
