Luke Wright - The move to Auckland, winning a World Cup and playing alongside greats of the game

In this episode of the show, we speak with Luke Wright, who has joined the Auckland Cricket coaching staff for 2022-23. Luke takes us through the move to Auckland and what he's noticed about the squad so far, before entertaining us with a walk down memory lane to look back at moments from his impressive career. We talk about young talent in the Auckland side, such as Adi Ashok, Simon Keene and Ryan Harrison, then discuss Luke's T20 World Cup win with England in 2010, playing alongside Shane Warne at the BBL and the experiences he's had and lessons learned along the way. Luke has a fascinating perspective on the rise of T20 leagues and the positives and negatives that brings for the international game and players all around the world, and we're sure you'll enjoy this conversation.
