About this episode
Robin Smith, one of the greatest England batsmen of his era, a Hampshire institution and, in the words of Mark Nicholas, “A dashingly handsome player in every respect”, joins the author Jon Hotten and our host Phil Walker to discuss the World Cup so far, the unassuming genius of Joe Root, what it was like to face Warne and Marshall, and why he felt compelled to commit his astonishing life story to paper in his new autobiography, The Judge. Plus, hear some expert advice from Betfair’s cricket correspondent, Ed Hawkins, about the tournament’s upcoming matches. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
