Welcome to The Umpire Strikes Back - Episode 45!

An international feel today with a look at two European adventures and a request for stories related to Shane Warne.

They talk about being contacted out of the blue, travelling to new lands and the highlights of being an international cricketer!

Next, we speak to Ageas Bowl and Hampshire Cricket stadium announcer Robbie James. Robbie talks about his journey into sports presenting and the joy of being paid to watch cricket!
