If cricket isn't just for rich people, stop pricing it for rich people

Season 16, Episode 36: A big week, beginning with the very sad and seemingly inevitable confirmation that Will Pucovski's career will end early after one Test for Australia. A different kind of retirement too, at the end of a very long career, as the consummate newsbreaker Malcolm Conn finishes up. Elsewhere, back to a topic that needs to come up more often: how can English grounds charge music-festival prices for a day of Test cricket? Plus it's Tiger Time, with a rollicking Bangladesh win, Brendon McCullum doubles his England job, the WBBL and BBL drafts took place, and the English domestic comps for men and women roll on.
