On Episode 60, we are (sadly) back to being a sausage fest. Chops, Tony, Max, Sameer, Bisi and Nitin join to dissect Healy's sweeping masterclass and glean meaningful takeaways from it. They ponder Australia's trainwreck of a tour, and their disastrous handling of their spin resources. There's chuckles and sympathy in varying measures for Ashton Agar and KL Rahul. The gang puts Dr. Strange to shame by painting out elaborate scenarios around how Bazball is likely to fare in the Ashes and when England next tour India. The manel also discusses the state of Indian women's cricket following the Harmanpreet heartbreak in their World Cup semifinal. Find us on Twitter: 1.
