Menners is back from his US tour and digs straight into the chaos engulfing England's cricket team after Ben Stokes and Gus Atkinson broke a team curfew following the first Test win over New Zealand, costing them their spots for the second Test (with Joe Root stepping in as captain) and putting Stokes's leadership under serious pressure. From there it's a tour of Australian cricket news: Cooper Connolly's breakout ODI century against Bangladesh, debut performances from Joel Davies and Nikhil Chowdhury, a strong start for the Australian women's team at the T20 World Cup, and a deep dive into the messy, stalled privatisation of the Big Bash League, including Cricket Victoria's botched (and reversed) axing of the Stars and Renegades. He wraps up with two "can't let it go" moments: RCB's IPL title and Kane Williamson's retirement from international cricket.
