The BEN STOKES CIRCUS: Self-Indulgent Test Retirement & Black Caps HISTORIC Series Win | BYC Podcast

The Black Caps have won a historic Test series against England at Trent Bridge. And Dylan Cleaver and G Lane are still reveling in it.

Dylan joins ACC Head G Lane to break down the monumental victory, including Daryl Mitchell's defiant, match-winning innings (or as the Barmy Army would call it, "Boring, Boring Daryl Mitchell"), the extraordinarily self-indulgent theatre of the "Ben Stokes Circus" that surrounded his Test retirement announcement, and a comparison against Tom Latham.

Then a check-in on the White Ferns keeping their T20 World Cup defence failure, the genuinely wild story of India going down 2-0 to Ireland in a T20 Series, some listener correspondence, and all the favourite furniture including Bat Chat and Cricket Violence Corner.
