Taking apart the Tim Paine story - with Daniel Brettig | The Final Word Cricket Podcast Podcast

How the ICC screwed Thailand: Season 11, Ep 7: With a new COVID variant causing panic in the ranks, the ICC cancelled its Women's World Cup qualifier that was underway in Zimbabwe. But there will be no rescheduling, just the promotion of countries that already sit at the top of the tree. Andrew Nixon joins the show to explain how Thailand, in particular, have been dudded. Also this week: the WBBL final, Ashes selections, and New Zealand hold off India in a classic Test.

Aotearoa is Tigerland as Rossco says goodbye: Season 11, Ep 12: While we were busy in Sydney, Test cricket was going off elsewhere. Bangladesh! Completed a magnificent win in New Zealand, which felt entirely more important than a less magnificent loss to follow. But the second match said farewell to Ross Taylor, after so many years as the core of the Kiwi order. Also, India are in the middle of a ding-dong battle in South Africa. And the women's Ashes and World Cup could both be in some strife.
