About this episode
It's Story Time, our weekly walk through cricket history via your listener quiz challenges. Today: there's something about doctors and cricket, they just keep coming up. We try to measure up to the unmeasurable, then wind all the way back to a literary classic born before the First World War, taking in another glimpse of the Test triangular, and look at the most underrated of the underrated, as well as the biggest achievement by far. Plus our listeners Declan Lawlor and Nick Tewson are raising money by the sweat of their brows. Your new Nerd Pledge numbers: 8.75 – Bob Tronson & Darragh O'Donovan 2.88 – W. G. Rumblepants 4.62 – Sean Barry 5.66 – Will Sandford 7.27 – ED Plus revisits and confirmations. Declan Lawlor's marathons are underway!
