Never a Dull Moment...

Lots to talk about this week - Simon Harmer's part in South Africa's stunning Test series win over Australia; England's ODI world tour continues, as the team arrives Australia; with 39 ECB central contracts announced, what does this mean for the players and their counties and does India have a strangle-hold grip on broadcast rights...we discuss. Also, are we nearing saturation point with the amount of franchise leagues springing up all the time? And with Leicestershire's relegation from the top flight confirmed after their unsuccessful appeal against the points deduction for a su-standard pitch, we look at what it means for them and for Essex who survive by the skin of their teeth.

Taking part in this week's show are Richard Clarke, Dan Whiting, Barrie Funnell, Alex Gates and David Wright. Join the conversation in the comments section below...
