Warner’s leadership ban is lifted, definitely closing the chapter on everything, all tied up in a neat little package. The birds chip McSweeney apparently. The Skeletons make serious history. Are they…good? Tim Paine, also with us on the show, answers that one directly. Pakistan delivers Bazball kryptonite, the WBBL gets underway, WA loses 8-1, AskTGC’s fly in deluxe.

We’re back. Too much going on. The winds of change are breezing through the game: the men’s team creaks, the women’s team falters, and through it all we zest for the scent of young, fresh blood. Whichever way you look at it, it’s clearly the Skeleton Century. Brad Hodge joins us to talk shifting tin, car parks, and becoming an artist via the publication of his book, “Brad Hodge’s Top Knocks”. AskTGCs roll in thick and fast, there’s dreams, tears and Chad Warner.
