@abcsport @eddiecowan @CorbinMiddlemas @eddiecowan can we get on the Cooper Connolly train for Sri Lanka and long term? Superb balance at the crease and could bat anywhere. More than handy second or third spinner

@plalor Showing your age there, Pete 🔥

[Matthew Balch @balchmatthew]

@plalor @plalor Loved the music chat at the end. What year was the Robert Smith dalliance? Early 80’s or 92?

[Matthew Balch @balchmatthew]

@HillyTheFish @ChesterFC You on the card?

[Matthew Balch @balchmatthew]

@GeoffLemonSport @collinsadam Also guys, I thought his line about ‘the schedule’ being the issue showed a complete lack of self awareness on his and CA’s part. He’s simply not a leader, let alone someone to inspire. He’s a middle manager who’s caught a few lucky waves. See out the TV rights deal, take his $

@collinsadam @GeoffLemonSport sorry guys, I thought the Hockley interview was watery AF. What are CA going to do to ensure there is competitve test cricket from touring teams 2/4 summers when India and England aren’t here? Thought @eddiecowan was spot on on the ABC pod today

[Matthew Balch @balchmatthew]

@GeoffLemonSport @collinsadam Haha touché

[Matthew Balch @balchmatthew]

@collinsadam @GeoffLemonSport would like to see Sam Hain in the Aussie middle order

[Matthew Balch @balchmatthew]

@collinsadam Couldn’t have dealt with another Pratt affair

[Matthew Balch @balchmatthew]

@gradecricketer Aust need to bat 150 overs. If they can’t do that, they deserve to lose 3-2 and it has to be effigies and bulk retirements. If Aust escape, there needs to be effigies and bull retirements for Eng for not delaying at midday

@sjjperry @talkSPORT Neither presenter can spell cricket. Save your legs, Pezzylad

@collinsadam @AuthorsCC @BurghleyPark Cream jumper over whites. Discuss

[Matthew Balch @balchmatthew]

@plalor note Major was chiefly responsible for selling off London’s sports fields. Particularly around Sth London where he is from

[Matthew Balch @balchmatthew]

@collinsadam at the ground. Over rates. Please call it out

[Matthew Balch @balchmatthew]

@collinsadam As long as we all agree that Broad’s wickets are void

[Matthew Balch @balchmatthew]

@GeoffLemonSport @collinsadam listening to the start of the RG interview literally walking into Kreuzberg in Berlin. Hilarious

[Matthew Balch @balchmatthew]

@HillyTheFish Well, you’re behind, which immediately discounts your view…

[Matthew Balch @balchmatthew]

@Scroobiuspipyo great ‘cast with Balmer, dude ❤️👏

[Matthew Balch @balchmatthew]

@LifeGoalsTD Theo, def check out The Smyths. Their version of ‘Barbarism’ is amazing live

@AvantiWestCoast Hi, why aren’t tickets available to buy on 19/06 (morning) between Euston and Birmingham?
