    EP5: It’s our Anniversary, Slow Overs - Red Card and Tillie Fever.

Today the guys discuss the pace of the game, or lack of it. Too slow? Red cards are on the … mmm cards. Around the world, in a lot less than 80 days because there isn’t much cricket going on, but we’ll update you on the not so epic matches that are in play.

    EP4: Village Cricket, The Future of Test Cricket, Who Got The Bonus Cash for the 6's, Lee Leaves?

    Uncle Stu (for this week), Shane, and Sharpy are back to move around the crease for 4 mins a rant. With the Ashes over, the boys turn their attention to village cricket, but can't help but reflect on the series. 4 years from now, the team reflect on the fact that nearly everyone is going to be... too old for another series. So with that, the guys debate the future of Test Cricket. 4 day test matches? Not our our watch. Remember the old days of when one of the insurance companies was giving away cash for hitting the sign in the domestic one day series. Who got the cash? Did Shane bid to send everyone to Hawaii? Did Warney and Stu collude on a million dollar hit? Around the grounds, or around the world in 4 mins with Sharpy. Shane, 50 not out, retired early and walked out early for his birthday.

    EP3: Ashes Wrap; England Boycotts Drinks, Ball and Team Changes

    Stu, Shane and Sharpy are back to discuss the end of the Ashes. Proper cricket, ball changes, bowling and batting performances, all dissected. Captaincy discussed, but more importantly the guys work out who has the rights to party. 2-2, Ashes retained. England didn't bother opening up the bar for traditionally post series drinks, with England's door locked shut. Knock knock. Nobody's there. What's up with that? Sharpy takes us around the cricketing world in 240 seconds and we discuss the ball change non controversy. Lastly we wrap up the episode with 'in and outs', who's coming and who's going to the next series. Ding ding. That's the end of the over.
