Expected leaves, driving "on the up" & absolute Ebony Rainford-Brent
About this episode
It’s the second test for the Cricket Cliches crew featuring our first change as cricket writer Charlie Reynolds steps in for Nick Miller.
On the agenda today; Ashes misery, who deserves more sympathy? Holiday-makers Down Under forced to endure the vineyards of Western Australia, or those of us stuck at home with TNT Sports?
England’s batters got plenty of stick for trying to drive “on the up”. What exactly does that mean and why is it so dangerous? Plus, cricket commentary’s top 3 absolutists and the horror that is expected leaves.
