Description

Nas and Ath have been forced inside to bring you their review of the opening day of the fifth Ashes Test against Australia, as England's promising start was interrupted by the weather in Sydney. Joe Root and Harry Brook had taken the tourists to 211-3 when the rain arrived. Still, plenty to discuss on day one including a lack of spin from Australia, a flurry of early England wickets and Root and Brook's stand. We'll have daily podcasts after every day's play during this Test, so make sure you give this show a follow wherever you listen to us, so you don't miss out.Watch every episode of the Sky Sports Cricket Podcast on YouTube here: Sky Sports Cricket Podcast on YouTubeListen to every episode of the Sky Sports Cricket Podcast here: skysports.com/sky-sports-cricket-podcastYou can listen to the Sky Sports Cricket Podcast on your smart speaker by saying "ask Global Player to play Sky Sports Cricket Podcast".Join in the debate on Twitter @SkyCricket.For all the latest Cricket news, head to skysports.com/cricketFor advertising opportunities or to get in touch with the pod email: [email protected]
