Matt Parkinson, Mankads and Umar Akmal’s indecent exposure

About this episode

Ben Gardner steers another show with guests Phil Walker (WCM editor-in-chief) and CricViz's cricket brain in a jar, Patrick Noone. The panel discuss Temba Bavuma's unique and essential journey, the eternal struggles for leg-spinners, England's squad for Sri Lanka, why life is too short for Mankad chat and why, for all his talent, Umar Akmal still gets exposed at the highest level.
