Description

Episode 3 – Alec Stewart

In 2019 on The Greatest Season That Was, Adam made a 12-part series exploring whether the 1999 ODI World Cup was the most interesting global tournament. With Dan Brettig (The Age) and Shannon Gill (Code Sports), they spoke with many of the key players and administrators across seven weeks. This is the sorry story of the home team. For that, we had England’s captain of the day, Alec Stewart, as our forthright guest. It was the perfect way to start our show back then and he didn’t miss targeting what went wrong when they failed to make it out of the group – famously, eliminated before the official tournament song was officially released.
