About this episode
Send us a text Sandeep and I are joined by Rahul Patil from Sportsfreak to talk about two of New Zealand's major cricketing achievements in the modern era - namely the women's T20 World Cup win and the men's test win in India. Although this was meant to be a NZ-centric discussion, it quickly meandered into familiar Indo-centric territory. We talk about the toss, the tactics, the batting collapse for the ages, NZ's sharp bowling and fielding, Sarfaraz's innings, Ashwin and Jadeja's declining fortunes, rise of the young brigade and the slow fading of old legends, and how to tackle spin bowling. And then we turn our attention to the the women's team's triumph in the T20 World Cup and how NZ beat all odds and expectations to emerge Champions and why we need to retain this format and not cave in to the Big Three.
