About this episode
Send us a text Hello and welcome to another episode of The Cricket Slouch . In this episode we discuss the unexpected SA win over India in the first test, on a pitch that was tailored to guarantee a win for India, take note of Gill's injury and what could have been if he had played, and look at the performances of Bumrah, Kuldeep, Axar, Jaiswal, KL, Sundar, Harmer, Jansen, and Bavuma. We couldn't help but compare Jaiswal to Crawley, take a detour into F1 to highlight how minimising mistakes is crucial to becoming a great sportsperson, and also marvel at the repetition of India's tactics to roll out tricky pitches despite their frequent losses on such surfaces. All this before the inevitable segue into the lead up to the Ashes and England's recent practice match vs Eng Lions. So, please sit back and enjoy this discussion which features Shounak and Lea on the panel.
