About this episode
It's Story Time, our weekly walk through cricket history via your listener quiz challenges. Today: a trip across Australia's lines from the Brisbane to the Barassi. Some cryptic stuff about numbers that don't equal other numbers. A couple of the great counterattacks, and the fastest in the world in more ways than one. Jean Valjean is back, along with 1970s beer advertisements and even more time than usual in the 1800s. Your new Nerd Pledge numbers: 5.43 – Cheemgadar & Peder Roberts. 2.22 – Srikanth Agaram & John Tucker 2.00 – Rob O'Neill Plus revisits and confirmations.
