Ben chats with three modern day legends just after the event to reflect on not only what being a Stag means to them but also how it’s help them achieve higher honours.

Central Stags hard hitting batsman Tom Bruce joins Ben Hurley from Kolkata on the eve of a crucial game against England as he swaps black for blue — representing his father's home country of Scotland at the T20 World Cup.

From a six-year gap between international appearances to floating through the middle order for his adopted nation, Tom opens up on switching allegiances, Scotland’s late call-up to the tournament, the emotion of beating Italy, and the looming do-or-die clash with England. A World Cup curveball you didn’t see coming.

The Cricketers Network podcast has had a kiwi comedy takeover!

We mix it up a little this week, instead of former professional players, how about a couple of professional comedians who happen to be super cricket fans.

Sanjay Patel is best known to people as Guy Montgomery’s side kick on the hugely popular Guy Montgomery’s Guy Mont Spelling Bee and Tony Lyall is deep in the cricket world being an ACC commentator and a game day host at Blackcaps games over many summers.

They cover everything from favourite moments, players, best format and some cracker yarns about Gavin Larsen and Kieran Read - plus we find out if Tony stole Ben's job at New Zealand Cricket.

It's a goody… so get listening!
