World Cricket Show

No foolin', it's the World Cricket Show.

On the pod this week, Adam and Tony pick over Australia's Ashes squad. Is recalling Brad Haddin a sensible step, or a crisis move? Is the call-up for Chris Rogers a gamble? And is this a squad that's equipped to bring the urn back to Australia?

In addition, this week's Got A Question sees Adam select his all-time left-handed eleven. Who's made the cut? And is there something about being left-handed that gives you an advantage in cricket?

Also this week:

Adam On Wire

Tony surprises everyone by not reading the book he was supposed to read

Sachin turns 40

Chris Gayle destroys the world record, and makes a splash in America

Adam makes a terrible first impression at a wedding

It's the first pre-season net of the new Cobo Legends campaign

Adam is hopelessly out of shape

The sea is cold in Guernsey

Tony, as ever, is little more than a walking punchline

Cricket!

On this week's eggciting Easter Special, Adam and Tony deliver a breathless report on the Miracle at Auckland. Does Test cricket get any more exciting? Has the drama papered over what was in truth a pretty disappointing series for England? And, while they couldn't quite force a win, should New Zealand be satisfied with their series' work?

In addition, there's analysis of India's whitewash-sealing win in Delhi. How close are they to being the finished article? And how can Australia get back on track?

Also this week:

Adam really hates going to the dentist

David Milliband, eh?

Two, count em two composite elevens

Great adverts for Test cricket

Tony gets very emotional at weddings

Shakin' it up WCS style.

On the pod this week, Adam and Troy discuss the damp draw in Wellington. Did rain deny England a victory? Is Stuart Broad back? And can either side force a result in Auckland?

In addition, there's typically meticulous analysis of India's series-sealing win in Mohali. Shikkar Dhawan - most spectacular debut ever? Have India put their troubles behind them? And where did it all go wrong for Australia?

Also this week:

The return of the Tony's Weekend feature, this time from Prague

Adam had a pretty bonkers weekend of his own

Didi Hamann listens to the show

Tony claims he never gets ill, yet is still a hypochondriac

Snow.M.G.

Snowed out of their regular studio, Adam and Tony rig up a telephone out of two tin cans on a string and deliver a report on the drawn Test in Dunedin. England capitulated, then fought back - how should we assess their performance? How impressive was Nick Compton's hundred? And which side will be happier heading to Wellington?

In addition, there's analysis of the startling developments in the Australian camp. Four players axed for not doing their homework - is this a ridiculous over-reaction? Or should we actually have some sympathy for the captain and coach?

Also this week:

Adam frolics in the snow while Tony has to work

Nick Knight's got a new catchphrase

Adam plagiarises yet...

Brimful of World Cricket Show on the 45.

On the pod this week, Adam and Tony deliver a staggeringly comprehensive preview of England's Test series in New Zealand. Is Nick Compton the right man to open? Or should Joe Root be promoted? And with Broad and Onions out of form, has a sudden lack of depth in the pace department been exposed?

There's analysis of New Zealand too - can the bowling unit find form? And how important will Ross Taylor's return to the side be?

Also this week:

Tony throws ketchup all over Adam

A Moises Henriques pronunciation update

Plans are in motion for the next single

Tony almost catches his death of cold, for which he blames Adam

Make way for the World Cricket Show.

On the pod this week, Adam and Tony discuss India's comfortable win over the Aussies in Chennai. Just how impressive was MS Dhoni's double hundred? Did Australia get their selection wrong? And can they bounce back in the next game?

In addition, there's some build-up to England's Test series in New Zealand. On the evidence of the one-day games, will New Zealand's batsmen be able to cope with the England bowlers? And will it be Broad or Onions who gets the nod?

Also this week:

Tony gets snubbed at the Oscars once again

Phil DeFreitas owes Adam money

Everyone struggles to pronounce Moises Henriques

Tony needs something a little less higbrow to read

Lionel Messi + cricket = the worst advert ever

Yes, it's the World Cricket Show.

On the pod this week, Adam and Tony (as portrayed by Daniel Day-Lewis) join forces to discuss South Africa's hard-fought win in Cape Town. Did Pakistan let the hosts off the hook? Or are the South Africans just too goddamn resilient to be beaten? And could they now be poised to join the ranks of the greats?

In addition, there's a look at the topsy-turvy start to the ODIs in New Zealand, and analysis of the conclusion to the Women's World Cup, where Australia ran out winners for the sixth time.

Also this week:

Adam wants a hug...in a mug

Tony contemplates going on the Michael Vaughan Bike Ride

Mr Cameron slopes off to play cricket in Mumbai

Who Adam would punch if he thought it was about to be the end of the world

Have you ever? Ever felt like this?

On this year's award-winning Pancake Day Special, Adam and Tony discuss the Twenty20 bonanza in New Zealand. 23 sixes were struck in Auckland - is that truly what the public come to see? And with fortunes swinging so dramatically from game to game, is T20 little more than a lottery? (Tony's actually done some actual research about this)

In addition, there are a couple of top-class Sidenotes, including plans for a fun and engaging way to liven up the innocuous Test match tea breaks that people are so fed up with.

Also this week:

Gordon Ramsay's in the studio

Tony hasn't started reading the book he was supposed to be reading, which comes as a big surprise

Adam and one of the kids from Round the Twist - separated at birth

Nick Knight drives everyone up the wall once again
