Episode Notes
Neil Manthorp is joined by the former England fast bowler Steve Harmison to discuss the week's biggest stories. They are also joined on the show by the New Zealand all-rounder Nathan Smith, and the England batter Heather Knight. How big a blow will it be for England if Jacob Bethell misses the first Test at Lord's next week? Who comes in to replace him at No.3 if he is ruled out with injury? Was the decision for Jofra Archer to miss the first Test now justified after Rajasthan Royals made it to the IPL play-offs? Could England's Test stars miss a Test series to play in the 2028 LA Olympics instead? How are New Zealand feeling ahead of their Tests against Ireland and England? Is this the strongest New Zealand bowling attack in their history? How will England's World Cup chances be impacted if Nat Sciver-Brunt is ruled out with injury? What's going on in South Africa with tickets for the Newlands Test against England this winter?
