World Cricket Show

Party like it's 2007.

On the pod this week, Adam and Tony unleash their borderline-too-comprehensive preview of India v England. Can the tourists conquer their spin demons? Might a combination of overconfidence and dressing room disharmony unsettle India? And who's won a coveted place in Adam's composite XI?

In addition, there's thorough analysis of the First Test draw in Brisbane. Why were South Africa's bowlers so impotent? Where on earth did Ed Cowan produce that innings from? And can anything stop Michael Clarke?

Also this week:

Tony's latest craze is running

Adam worries that comedians will make fun of him

Apparently it sometimes rains in Australia

Kevin Pietersen: better than the Lonely Planet

Flintoff's comedy panel show gets bad reviews all round

Elect this.

On the pod this week, Adam and Tony set aside their differences and reach across the aisle to deliver a comprehensive preview of the marquee series between Australia and South Africa. Can the Aussie pace attack replicate the performances of a year ago? Can the Proteas keep up their world-beating form? And will Hashim Amla get out at any point?

Meanwhile, things are hotting up in India, with the first England Test now right up in everybody's grill. Did the tourists learn anything substantial from their second warm-up game? Are we any closer to settling the opener debate? Might Jonathan Trott be a good option at the top?

Also this week:

Adam can't stay awake past one o'clock anymore

Tony banters with Butcher

Abandon all hope, ye who enter here.

On this terrifying Halloween Special, Adam and Tony discuss a subject so macabre that the mainstream media have all but ignored it - the Kevin Pietersen saga. Have the selectors made the right decision to bring him back? Will a successfully reintegrated KP be vital to England's cause in India? Or will his presence destabilise the squad?

Things then take an even darker turn with analsysis of the recently-completed Champions League. Not many people appear to like this tournament - does it have a future in its present form? Or is it time to go back to the drawing board?

Also this week:

Adam dusts off some side-splitting Halloween material

Tony won't stop talking...

Rockin' all over the World Twenty20.

On the pod this week, Adam and Tony reflect on West Indies' remarkable World T20 triumph. How on earth did they turn around a game that looked gone? Will Marlon Samuels' innings go down as one of the great knocks in a world final? Will the win be enough to silence Darren Sammy's critics? And could this be the dawn of a bright new day for West Indies cricket?

In addition, there's more a general report card on the tournament. Will it be remembered as a success? How many enthusiastic thumbs up will Tony give it out of ten? And who's secured a coveted spot in Adam's Composite XI Of The Tournament?

Also this week:

The Fantasy League draws to an end, and it's not good news for Tony

Talk about the World Cricket Show....

On the pod this week, Adam and Tony continue their peerless coverage of the World Twenty20 with a look ahead to the knockout rounds. Will home crowds spur Sri Lanka to the title? Or will Pakistan's bowling unit have too much for them? Can Shane Watson do it all on his own for Australia? Or will Gayle blow them away?

In addition, there's analysis of England's disappointing exit from the tournament. What went wrong for the 2010 champions? Why was the top order batting so weak? Was it a problem of planning, application, selection? Or was it simply a case of the dice not falling their way this time round?

Also this week:

Adam is thinking of going into advertising, and with some of his slogans you can see why

Nasser is very much in love

Tony tries somehow to claim that he should be applauded for picking New Zealand as semi-finalists, even though they didn't get there

Crash, bang, please don't say wallop.

On the pod this week, Adam and Tony continue their award-winning analysis of the World Twenty20. The group stage is over - which teams have emerged as the leading contenders? Can South Africa finally capitalise on a strong start to a global tournament? Or might this be West Indies' moment? And can Lasith Malinga get it together in time to revive Sri Lanka?

England's surrender to India has got everyone depressed - but is all hope lost? Or can the holders bounce back?

Off we go again.

On the pod this week, Adam and Tony reflect on the opening matches of the World Twenty20. Sri Lanka and Australia recorded convincing wins, but can you read much into victories over the minnows? Ajantha Mendis was sensational, but will he carry on that form against better teams? And how much of a fright did Afghanistan give India?

In addition, there's a look ahead to some of the upcoming matches. Can Bangladesh upset the Kiwis? And are England ready to begin the defence of their crown?

Listen very carefully, I shall say this only once.

On the pod this week, Adam and Tony unleash their spectacular World Twenty20 preview. There's a meticulous breakdown of every team's chances, starting with England. Can they defend the crown they won in 2010? Can Stuart Broad be the new Paul Collingwood? And is Jos Buttler now arguably the best T20 batsman in the world?

Everywhere you look, there's analysis. Can Virat Kohli power India to the title? Will Afridi and Ajmal give Pakistan the edge? Could Sri Lanka rewrite the history books by winning at home? Will Australia be able to outperform their lowly ranking?

Oh, it's all just too exciting.

OMG! ROFL! WCS!

On the pod this week, Adam and Tony discuss England's ODI draw with South Africa. What, if anything, have we learned from this series? Should England be concerned about their batting? Should South Africa be concerned about theirs? And who has the momintum going into the T20s?

In addition, there's analysis of India's thrilling Test win over New Zealand. Will the home team be happy, or just relieved? And are we in the last days of Sachin's career?

Call the police! It's the World Cricket Show!

On the pod this week, Adam and Tony try to get their heads around the news of the England captain's retirement. What led Andrew Strauss to his decision? Was it the correct one? What legacy does he leave behind? And how will Alastair Cook get on as his replacement?

In addition, there's analysis of India's routine win over New Zealand, and a couple of corking Sidenotes involving night cricket in Pakistan and the Television Event Of The Year.
