About this episode
The Ashes are here, and so are we with our definitive predictions. This isn't just a friendly chat; we're putting our reputations on the line. We've gathered the crew to discuss who will lift the Urn and why this series might just redefine Test cricket. Expect passionate arguments, obscure historical references, and perhaps a touch of bias as we weigh the strengths and weaknesses of both the English and Australian squads. Tune in to see who we're backing to take home the prize. To add some official structure, we're using a "snake draft" format to lock in our predictions. Each host will draft key outcomes—from the final scoreline to top run-scorers and leading wicket-takers—forcing strategic consideration. It's a high-stakes battle of wits as we meticulously build our prediction sheets and ultimately crown one host as the supreme prognosticator of the 2025 Ashes series.
