Champions Trophy Preview

Adam & Tony deliver the definitive preview of the Champions Trophy, which is back after an 8-year absence. It's a strange competition, and it's come and gone and come and gone - but does it actually have a case for being the best tournament in cricket? We also discuss the problematic hosting situation, before getting into the detail on the pitch. Will England get out of the group? And can anyone stop India? Then in the second half, we take a trip down memory lane and recall the Champions Trophies of yesteryear - including the epic final we went to in 2004. All this and more on this World Cricket Show Champions Trophy Preview. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Questions Special: 4-day Tests & Cricket at the Olympics

Adam & Tony open up the old mailbag and tackle some cracking questions from listeners. Starting with 4-day Tests - a crime against cricket? Or could they actually take the sport in a positive direction? Plus, thoughts on cricket's Olympic comeback at LA 2028. Will it be a gamechanger for the sport, and even for the Olympics? And will there be a repeat of the 1900 final? (Spoiler alert - probably not) All this and more on the latest World Cricket Show. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Two Division Test Cricket

Adam & Tony reflect on a momentous win for Australia in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. The Aussies now hold every 'trophy' they compete for in Test cricket - should we be talking about them (and Captain Cummins) as amongst the best of all time? Plus, is Scott Boland on his way to becoming one of Australia's favourite sons? And what went wrong for India? Is Kohli finished? There's also a debrief on South Africa's win over Pakistan, before talk turns to the ICC's latest wheeze - two division Test cricket. An intriguing way to spice up the Test game? Or a disaster waiting to happen? All this and more on the latest World Cricket Show. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Boxing Day Bonanza

Adam and Tony review two sensational Boxing Day Test matches, starting at the MCG where a world record crowd saw Australia defeat India. How have the Aussies turned things around? Is Smith back to his best? Is Konstas the future? And what's gone wrong for India? Next, another thriller in Centurion, where South Africa dragged themselves over the line to defeat Pakistan by 2 wickets. Should we be taking the Proteas more seriously as a Test force?

Christmas Special - Test Team of the Era

All I want for Christmas is you...to pick a composite eleven. It's Team Adam v Team Tony as the World Cricket Show hosts select their best eleven of the era since the podcast started in 2008. It's a draft - so they can't pick the same players. Who'll get Steve Smith? Dale Steyn? Joe Root? Will Kohli make the cut? What about KP? The answers will shock you, thrill you, appall you - it's edge-of-the-seat stuff as the teams are drawn and, crucially, a winner is determined. All this and more on this very special World Cricket Show Christmas Special. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On the historic 400th episode, Adam & Tony discuss England's win in Wellington: Brook's brilliance, Bethell's emergence, Atkinson's hat-trick, Crawley's struggles, New Zealand's collapse in form, and why Bazball's still the best.
