Episode Notes

What does England's Test captain Joe Root make of Usman Khawaja's ball-tampering revelations? Will the story go away? And how long is Jacob Bethell going to be out of action for?

Henry Moeran talks to Joe Root at the Perth Stadium to discuss the continued fall-out from Usman Khawaja's sandpapergate comments, as well as the latest on the fitness of Jacob Bethell, and how he reflects on his career as he will reach 200 ODI caps for England.

Plus, the PA's Rory Dollard gives Henry his thoughts on Khawaja, Bethell, and what England will want from this white-ball series.
