Neil Manthorp is joined by the former England fast bowler Steve Harmison to look back at England's Test series victory at home to Pakistan. They are also joined on the show by the former Pakistan batter Zaheer Abbas to reflect on his remarkable career in the game. Is it fair to compare England's bowling attack to the one in 2005? What are this current side missing that that side had? Can this attack be as good as that one? Why did Pakistan release 7 players and 2 coaches from the Test squad ahead of next week's third Test? Will there ever be stability at the Pakistan Cricket Board? How would a player feel about all the turmoil off the field?
Listeners outside of the UK can hear live ball-by-ball commentary of the third Test between England and Pakistan on the talkSPORT Cricket YouTube Channel.
