Bowled out for how many?! | Wiz gets some runs and chaos erupts in Club Cricket!

Fish lands a hosting gig at The Hundred, Wizard finally brings up his long-awaited 50, and second-team cricket descends into complete chaos, with video evidence to prove it. We also break down England's dominant T20 win over India, Fish's latest batting disaster, a controversial afternoon of club umpiring featuring dodgy LBWs, missed stumpings and a near-fight, plus react to the worst scorecard we've ever been sent: a team bowled out for just 10. Village cricket never disappoints.

Ben Stokes Retires, The Future of England Cricket and More Dodgy Umpiring

Ben Stokes has retired from international cricket... or has he? Wizard and Fish unpack the conspiracy theory surrounding his exit, dissect England's disastrous Test series against New Zealand, and ask why Baz McCullum and Rob Key are still in charge. They also look back at Stokes' incredible legacy, debate Harry Brook's approach at the crease, and celebrate the England Women's team reaching another final. Elsewhere, Wiz makes it three not-outs in a row (18* off 9 this week 🚀), calls out the growing umpiring crisis in club cricket, and shares another update from his latest weekend in the middle.

Most Overrated England Team Ever? We Got ICC Passes & Chaos Followed

Back in the studio after an unbelievable week at the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup. We recap the media pass chaos — from ICC hospitality suites and getting inside the commentary box with Ian Bishop, to Fish nearly getting wiped out by security on the Edgbaston pitch and landing our first-ever player interview for the podcast with Sophie Molineux. Plus: is this the most overrated England generation? We get into the James Rew keeping technique debate, preview the Trent Bridge Test, and relive Fish’s all-time first-baller LBW meltdown. To finish, Wizard dusts off his 2006 Woodworm Wand and takes us back to where it all started. 🏏 New episodes every week covering club cricket, wicketkeeping, batting disasters, and everything happening in the cricket world. #Cricket #ClubCricket #EnglandCricket #TestCricket #CricketPodcast #VillageCricket #GMCL #CheshireCricket

Behind The Scene's of Colson's Cricket Club! | Women's Cricket and England Test Match Drama

We're live from Castleford Cricket Club with special guest Colson Smith and this one's got everything. Colson joined the committee at 15 years old, just in time to watch the club nearly fold. From relegation to a five-year rescue plan scribbled on the back of a Nando's menu, this is the story of how a local club rebuilt itself around three simple words: Cricket, Club, Community. It gets properly chaotic too, the council literally filled in their tea-room serving hatch mid-renovation, they're spending £385 just to host a home game, and somehow, out of all that, a women's team was born. Then we're into the professional game: the Lord's pitch disaster, England v NZ fallout, Ben Stokes' big night out and what Joe Root back as captain actually means. The Clean Take Podcast, honest cricket chat, served straight up. New episodes every week. 🏏
