Season 1, Ep 6: Reloading lost episodes from the early Final Word. It's Season 1! At the end of Australia's 2015 tour of England, after the one-day series to follow the Ashes, it was great to be joined by our friends Jesse Hogan from the Fairfax papers and Stephan Shemilt from the BBC. At the top of the order - I can't stand it, I know you planned it - are there shenanigans afoot with Jason Roy and Alex Hales? Or will Moeen Ali get a Test job ahead of both? John Wayne Hastings was in the right place at the right time to make telling contributions with bat and ball. Plus we innocently speculate about Australia's ultimately cancelled Test tour of Bangladesh.
This season was originally recorded for the ABC - this is the extended edition, restoring removed material.
