225. Greatest Summer Ever

A drab draw closes out the Test summer, and we’re asking: what the fuck was that? Sure Australia destroyed all-comers, passing records and milestones with frightening ease - but why couldn’t they deliver this specific thing exactly as we wanted it? And why did Cummins declare on Khawaja? The reason will shock you (he wanted to win). Elsewhere, there’s a bit of money knocking about for the TV rights, but not as much as last time, and apparently CA and 7 are - in executive parlance - “all good”. The BBL is trending up for the first time in years, helped by contentious catches, Mankads, and Chris Lynn topping the charts. But he’s gone to some other league now. Normal. Pakistan and New Zealand play a riveting Test match before the umpires decided, “nah, can’t have that”, and SKY equals the Czech Republic’s Sabawoon Divizi’s 3 T20i tonnes v Sri Lanka.
