About this episode
Bloodied, battered and bruised after the World Cup, to quote Watford’s Life President Elton John, “we’re still standing” and delighted to welcome you back to the old B&B for some relaxing drinking and chatting. And who better to do that with, than our own David (Babbling) Brook? David joining your Ursine Landlord and Episcopal Barman can only mean one thing. There’s a West Indies series on the horizon. So that’s where we start and look at two sides testing out new and younger talent in the white ball arena. For what’s its worth, none of us think it’s going to be that easy for England even though there seems to be some unrest bubbling in the West Indies camp. Here's our full conversational menu for your delight and delectation: · West indies Preview – What’s the story with Bravo? And now Shane Dowrich too. Who might shine for England? · World Cup Wrap – Did India dig their own hole? · Cricket Writers Awards – A Brook on Brook appraisal · Ben Stokes and the Battle of Wounded Knee · India and Australia – still slugging it out – Why? · Shanto Panto in Sylhet – Oh no it isn’t! Oh yes, it is! Grab yourself a drink at the bar and settle in to enjoy the chat.
