    We had our actions tested at The University of Western Australia!

    Season 17, Episode 13: Okay, we didn't get the dots on, but we did record at Perth's gorgeous campus where for two decades bowlers with suspect actions visited from everywhere. Aaron Chin, a biomechanist who worked on the project, tells us all about it. Earlier, it is everything-other-than-the-BGT on our agenda, including a trip over to Christchurch with Cam Ponsonby. There's also a light-touch IPL auction chat, comparisons between Henry Hunt and Harold Holt, and the PCB (rightly) cashing in. Then a red-ball wrap for men and a white-ball lap for women.

    TFW Daily - Sack the lot? Australia has problems - Aus India 1st Test review

    Australia India Daily, 1st Test, Perth review: With the Test done in four days, the dust has not remotely settled. Australia got smashed, the people want change, and the McDonald-Cummins management team wants calm and stability. Those things don't align. Adam and Geoff run over some of the things Australia need to consider, and the good selection problems in India's future. Come to our live shows!

    TFW Daily - The day India went large - Aus India 1st Test, Perth Day 4

    Australia India Daily, 1st Test, Perth Day 4: It happened, not exactly in the way we thought it might, but it happened. There was plenty of fun on the fourth and final day for Travis Head and Mitchell Marsh, time for a little more artistry from Jasprit Bumrah, and some fine backup work from Mohammad Siraj and Harshit Rana. A result in Perth that will live long in Test annals. Come to our live shows!

    TFW Daily - Kohli gets that century - Aus India 1st Test, Day 3

    Australia India Daily, 1st Test, Perth Day 3: The way things seemed to be going was the way they continued, as India made Australia work in the way that Australia usually makes visiting teams work. This match could have huge ramifications within the sport, but let's focus on the here and now: a day for Jaiswal first, Kohli second, and Bumrah third, with its dramatic denouement.

    TFW Daily - Jaiswal does Australia slowly - Aus India 1st Test, Day 2

    Australia India Daily, 1st Test, Perth Day 2: This match was spiralling out of control, and now it has been dragged back to an even keel. An abrupt gear shift in Test cricket, featuring one of the longer and slower last-wicket partnerships you're likely to see, then one of the longer and slower opening stands that modern cricket is likely to produce. Day 2 ends with India with a great chance to shake up expectations for this series. Come to our live shows!

    Australia India Daily, 1st Test, Perth Day 1: Whooo was expecting that? Was it a good bowl-first day? We still don't know, because everybody got out, on both teams. A fast-bowling clinic from across the world united, in a day full of thrills and not very many spills. Come to our live shows!

    "I'm glad Pujara isn't here" - the Border-Gavaskar beckons

    Season 17, Episode 12: It's Test season, it's Perth, and the band is almost back together. Geoff will join Adam tomorrow for the preview day and the Final Word live show, but before that we need to get a read on the BGT, and Josh Hazlewood's pre-game thoughts. A lot more to cover, including the end of India's dominant T20 International year via Sanju Samson, more chaos in Pakistan with Jason Gillespie's non-sacking and the non-relocation of the Champions Trophy, and a small bit of cheer about the Afghan women's team in the gloom.
