    India Vs Japan Wide Ball Controversy

    In this podcast, Kushal speaks with Aadit Kapadia and Nikhil Mehra about the most useless controversy ever. In the India vs Japan one-off T20 match, an obvious wide wasn't given, prompting an appeal by the Indian captain, and the decision was overturned. That led to a tsunami of commentary from certain "journalists" in England, Pakistan, and South Africa, who started criticising India and the BCCI. They also discuss another stupid controversy: South Africa's decision to implement exchangeable pitches, which led to false claims that they did it under pressure from the BCCI to aid Team India. Beyond that, they will talk about the ODIs between Australia vs South Africa and England vs Sri Lanka.
