@NorfolkCrickSoc @norfolkccc @lancscricket @englandcricket Outrageous that you could even suggest that people go straight to the end of the podcast! Many thanks for the message - glad you enjoyed it and even better to get a mention for the mighty @norfolkccc

@guardian_sport @tjaldred Excellent article! Mike was great company on my Once Upon a Time in the Ashes podcast earlier this year. Here's a clip from the episode...

Mike Smith and @Athersmike's long association with each other went back to U13 Roses cricket. But on the eve of Mike's Test and Ashes debut, Athers took a shine to Mike's bowling in the nets and slogged him to all parts of Headingley.

Full story on the latest episode - out now!

@piersmorgan @BeefyBotham Not seen the TV show yet but that certainly wasn't my impression of Chappelli when I spoke to him for Once Upon a Time in the Ashes...

@WG_RumblePants @bbctms The beauty is we'll never know.

[Once Upon a Time in the Ashes @OnceAshes]

@WG_RumblePants @bbctms We are 278-4! This is not an England collapse.

@ErikaMorris79 @MatthewDaubney Probably depends more on conditions and time in the match. He needs to bowl them out again so needs enough time for that and the run chase. But the unpredictability is brilliant. Every session is becoming an event.

[Once Upon a Time in the Ashes @OnceAshes]

@ErikaMorris79 Exactly. It was superb! Cricket/ life can always be better in retrospect. Every Test captain should feel a responsibility to entertain. If weather is not an issue no 5 day game should end in a draw.

@danredford70 Fine line. Hook for 6 and clear rope it's exciting. Hook for 6 and get caught it's reckless.

@RedRoseCricket1 Cheers - glad you enjoyed it!

@GlennHoddle More magic in those boots than Houdini, Potter and Paul Daniels combined! Enjoyed your interview in @TheCricketerMag. My podcast features Ken Taylor and Arnie Sidebottom who played cricket for Yokshire and football for Huddersfield (Ken) and Man Utd (Arnie). Could have been you!

On Ashes Eve #2 and with Ian Chappell trending it seems a good time to share this clip about his thoughts on captaincy. The original aggressive captain. Check out the full interview with Chappelli on Once Upon a Time in the Ashes - wherever you get your podcasts.

@CricXtasy And he knows plenty about captaincy...
