First-Class or Nothing
This episode unpacks the finding of the The Independent Commission for Equity in Cricket (ICEC) that cricket in England is elitist and exclusionary. We question why 77% of English test batters who have debuted since 2011 have been privately educated. And we explore the history of the Gentleman vs Players fixture as we unpick the relationship between the class system and cricket.
Teatime Declarations is a podcast that looks at cricket through the lens of states, societies, and their interactions. Jonny and Paul talk you through their reflections on the beautiful game, and the difficult questions it poses for our life and times.
