Cricket Collective - Australia Name Ashes Squad & Is One Game Enough Preparation For England?!

Neil Manthorp is joined by the former England fast bowler Steve Harmison to look ahead to the start of the Ashes. Code Sports' Chief Cricket Writer Daniel Cherny joins us to discuss Australia's squad named for that first Test in Perth, with Jake Weatherald preferred to Sam Konstas. They'll discuss the make up of Australia's XI for that Test, discuss the future of Test Cricket in Australia, and hear from National Selector George Bailey. They also debate if one warm-up game against the England Lions is sufficient preparation for England ahead of a series like the Ashes, and they get the thoughts of the former England bowler Darren Gough. England's Elite Bowling Coach Neil Killeen joins the show to discuss a busy winter for the England Lions, and give his thoughts on the bowling unit selected for England's Ashes series. Plus, they'll discuss the latest developments in The Hundred, preview India's two-Test series with South Africa, and bring you The Final Word. Hosted on Acast.
