Cam Fink has extended his skills from shooting to animating for this part of our project, given that Melbourne's lockdown separated us all for the second India-England Test. The audio versions of this show are in the normal podcast feed as well.
With that Test out of the way, we turned to the TFW Weekly.
Season 9, Episode 21
Now the dust has settled in Chennai, we try to strip the parochial from the practical on the broader subject of pitch preparation, and figure out what the various positions of argument are actually about. Also this week some Glenn Maxwell time, a bit of West Indies and Ireland, more stories from our Bannerman Search, then a great chat with Angela Pippos about her new documentary The Record, about the Women's T20 World Cup final at the MCG.
