Tailenders

We get Jimmy’s ‘hot take’ on the Men’s Test Squad Announcement and the appointment of Marcus North as National Selector. Plus more Charisma Substitutes, Mattchin has a new challenge and has Tailenders' first Sponsorship deal collapsed in controversy before it even got going?

Our very own Issy Wong has been selected for the England T20 World Cup Squad - but what was it like waiting for THAT call?
Plus what happened when the T20 Squad went on an Army Bootcamp, Jimmy kicks off about the Substitute rule in County Cricket, tech issues (has Jimmy been hacked by The Russians?), billage cricket sponsorship, Felix has a radical idea to improve post match interviews, and we have LOTS of homework for the Tailenders listeners.,

Fast bowler Tymal Mills is our special guest on this week’s show and is the subject of one of Mattchin’s most bizarre quizzical concepts in the history of Tailenders - and that’s saying something. Plus who should get the nod for England, playing with legends, the ups and downs of franchise cricket and what’s it like to get 6 wickets in 6 balls….we chat to the bowler who did just that and broke the ‘cricketing internet’.

Jimmy can’t stop taking wickets, Fe and Mattchin have had an ‘Indie Cricket Day Out' at Bristol and Greg bumped into a cricketing legend at Lord’s - but who was it? Plus ‘Mattchin Time’, Restaurant recommendations, Listener ‘Alternative XIs’, Health tips from Justin Rose, Correspondence of Uncertainty and what has driven a wedge in Greg and Felix’s friendship?

The County Championship is back and we’re loving it! Jimmy’s in the wickets and, despite it being absolutely freezing, there was a full #tailendersoftheworlduniteandtakeover at Lords for Day 1 of Middlesex v Gloucestershire. Plus random Chocolate Bars, Playfair annuals, Scoring etiquette, GCSE results and a History Lesson from Mattchin.
