  • 286. The Boys of Summer
    Jan 6 2025

    Australia win the Border-Gavaskar in Sydney thanks to a man named Barrel and a thing called Slug. It’s the perfect end to a summer of chaos, calmness, controversy, Konstas and karma. The numbers falling in front of our eyes are as mysterious and wonderful as figuring out what day it might be. We discuss India’s behaviour on and off the field, the lack of repercussions or leadership shown by anyone and what the future might look like for an Indian generation that failed to deliver as much as what it once promised.

    There’s also a complete sweep of the BBL, the Bancroft/Sams head clash, Dan Christian going from assistant coach to into the playing squad, the Test players returning (haha.. ok), the Stars winning 2 gams in a row and Hilton Cartwright hitting a 121m six.

    The women’s Ashes starts on Sunday, so Higgos ponders if it is indeed the most fulfilling dessert to a summer that has given us a main course to die for.

The Highlight of being an Aussie Cricket fan atm

These fellas are very funny especially when Australia are doing bad. They are also a great way to keep up with the Cricketing world.

Must listen for cricket tragics

These guys are funny. Yep just like hanging with your mates at the pub. But wait, now they have quality international guests and turns out they're pretty great at interviewing. Love hearing the yarns and the behind the scenes, back stories from the players who are totally at ease. And unlike your mates, they're consistent, quality material (they must do a tonne of homework). All from two blokes who "didn't make it" but appear to be living the dream with fam following all over the cricketing world. Kudos Pez and Higgos.
