Neil Manthorp is joined by the former England fast bowler Steve Harmison to dissect England's Test squad named for the first 2 Tests against Pakistan later this month. They are also joined on the show by the former Australia fast bowler Jason Gillespie to look ahead to a potentially career defining 12 months for the Australian Test side. Is Sam Curran the man to fill the void left by Ben Stokes in England's Test side? Does the 16-man squad named suggest that England will go without a specialist spinner at Headingley and Lord's? Do England have the quality in Test Cricket to return to being the No.1 side in the world?
Listeners outside of the UK can hear live ball-by-ball commentary of England's three-match series against Pakistan on the talkSPORT Cricket YouTube Channel.
