196. The Ginger Century, with Liam Livingstone
YJB was absolutely sensational, Root is the best player ever (at the moment) and Stokes is the captain that England need. But just how bad were New Zealand? Australia are doing good things in Sri Lanka, but will we remember any of this unless Tim David is selected and we feel safety in the size of the men that represent the country. South Africa are winning against India B, not that any of this matters, because the IPL rights just got sold for $5.1billion USD. Wouldn't mind a slice. Liam Livingstone is on the show to tell us how and why he swings so hard and #AskTGC involves a young law clerk being caught in a lie.

195. They're Still Booing Root, with Todd Murphy and Ali Martin
Is England back or was this 2s v 3s? Root's the best, Broad's vibrations, "team hat-tricks" are for children. Ali Martin lends much needed credibility to all of this. Australia plays Sri Lanka in the big one, same goes India and South Africa. 21 year old Todd Murphy was playing at Kahlin Oval in Darwin a fortnight ago, now he's in Sri Lanka with Australia - he joins us to detail his approach to bullying and aesthetics. The ICCs head honcho says Test cricket doesn't make heaps so, you know, be grateful for what you've got. #AskTGC is about whether one can unbeta oneself.

Incredibly funny hosts, don’t take themselves too seriously when discussing cricket. Quality banter. No matter what country you’re from if you love cricket you’ll like this podcast. Lots of good interviews too with current and ex players
