The Final Word Cricket PodcastAbout this episode
England India Daily, 2nd Test, Edgbaston Preview: Whilst it’s only 1-0, there’s a sense that India needs a positive result out of this game, and since Bazball’s England doesn’t do draws, a win is the only option. How do they manage to ensure the series isn’t as good as over by Lord’s, and do it at a ground where they have never won? Jasprit Bumrah is the obvious choice, but should they also pick Kuldeep Yadav? It’ll be a pivotal Test for spinners as Shoaib Bashir and his tendency to leak runs will likely be in the spotlight. Ben Jones joins Daniel Norcross.
