Is this finally the moment Team India cements their legacy as the undisputed greatest T20 side in history? With the 2026 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup kicking off this week, we’re diving deep into Group A to see if Suryakumar Yadav and his squad are ready to defend their crown on home soil.

In this episode, the boys break down India’s "ultra-attacking" squad selection. We discuss the shock exclusion of Shubman Gill, the explosive potential of an Abhishek Sharma and Sanju Samson opening pair, and whether Jasprit Bumrah can carry a bowling attack featuring the mystery spin of Varun Chakaravarthy. But it’s not all smooth sailing—we tackle the big questions around Surya’s recent dip in form and whether the middle order can survive the pressure of a home World Cup.

The drama doesn’t stop there. We provide a full Group A preview, analyzing the massive political fallout as Pakistan confirms a boycott of their high-stakes February 15 clash against India in Colombo. What does this mean for the tournament’s integrity and Pakistan’s path to the Super 8s? We also look at the "giant-killer" potential of the USA, Netherlands, and Namibia. Can Saurabh Netravalkar haunt the big guns again?

The Ashes might be done and dusted, but our cricket chat is just heating up. In this week's jam-packed episode, Jack, Max, and Ross revisit their infamously "dodgy" pre-series Ashes predictions. We're talking bold shouts, massive flops, and a good dose of self-deprecation as we review just how wrong (or maybe, just maybe, slightly right?) we were about the world's greatest Test rivalry. Did Bazball fizzle out Down Under? We dig into the stats and the real story behind Australia's dominant 4-1 victory. Expect sharp analysis, a bit of banter, and some brutal honesty about England's performance and the systemic issues plaguing the ECB.



But wait, there's more! The glorious chaos of white ball cricket is back with a bang. We spin through all the latest from the shortest formats, covering the big hits, controversial dismissals, and tactical masterstrokes. Get your essential dose of cricket analysis and entertainment, blending serious chat with the sort of unfiltered opinion you won't find anywhere else. Tune in, subscribe, and join the conversation!

The Ashes are over, which means it's time for recriminations. Why did England lose? Did they drink too much? Is it because they can't catch? Did they pick the wrong players?

Or perhaps it's all snicko's fault? Or the pitches? Or timewasting?

We get into it all as we review England's 4-1 Ashes defeat, and pick our combined 2025/26 Ashes XI.
