  • ICC Men's T20 World Cup Day 8: Black Caps' bowling struggles, England's execution & were the gloves touching or not?
    2026/02/14
    In this episode of the show, Raj and Stu look back at Day 8 of the 2026 Men’s T20 World Cup, which featured three games: Ireland v Oman, England v Scotland and New Zealand v South Africa. We start the show by discussing the Black Caps' top of the table clash against South Africa, which unfortunately didn't go the way the New Zealanders were hoping. Tim Seifert and Finn Allen raced out of the gates, and Mark Chapman & Daryl Mitchell rebuilt the innings, but a stuttered finish left them short of a par score. And from the moment the ball hit Aiden Markram's bat, South Africa looked completely in control. We talk about the Black Caps' bowling struggles, possibly not giving Markram's brilliance enough credit as we search for answers to the powerplay problems. In the second match of the day, England took on Scotland, who built a nice platform thanks to a strong partnership between Richie Berrington & Tom Bruce, before a flurry of wickets from Liam Dawson & Adil Rashid put the brakes on. With the bat, England weren't exactly commanding, but a Tom Banton half-century led them across the line and left them well-placed for a Super 8 spot. Ireland began Day 8 of this World Cup batting like a side with nothing to lose, looking to set the tone early against an Oman team also searching for their first victory. Unfortunately for them, wickets fell as Oman's spinners found a nice length, until a lifeline for Lorcan Tucker on 18 completely flipped the game. To round out the show, the boys look ahead to Day 9, which sees Nepal face the West Indies, Namibia v USA and the blockbuster of all blockbusters between India and Pakistan in Group A.

  • ICC Men's T20 World Cup Day 7: We've got our first big upset...
    2026/02/13
    Baldy has had an absolute nightmare overnight as Australia fall to Zimbabwe overnight leaving their progression out of the group stage in peril. Whether it's a loss of identity, a failure to execute, or just a perfect performance by Zimbabwe, Raj, Baldy, and Jamie break down the first big upset of the tournament. There's a lot to unpack in that (lack of) performance by the Aussies - the batting effort comes under a lot of scrutiny. Also - where's Steve Smith when you need him? For Zimbabwe, we praise Bennet and the top order for getting the most out of the conditions, and their bowling for tearing through Australia. Baldy's bold 'Taking Care of Business' predictions continued to haunt him as his beloved Canadians fall to the UAE overnight. For the UAE, the young Aryansh Sharma puts himself in the franchise spotlight with a match-winning and possibly career-defining performance. Junaid Siddique also comes in for praise for his performance as the UAE build momentum during the group phase. Finally, Baldy goes 0 for 3 as the boys recap USA's thumping victory over the Netherlands. Again, the USA put in just about the perfect performance, even without Adries Gous ad Saurav Netravalkar as Mukkamalla and van Shalkwyk stand tall with bat and ball. For the Dutch it was a disappointing effort with spin and with the bat as their campaign hasn't really got going. Looking forward Baldy is on a 24-48 hour prediction standdown, but Raj is convincing and the boys give their take on the NZ vs SA, England vs Scotland (the cricket, not the Six Nations at Murraryfield) and Ireland vs Oman fixtures coming up tonight.

  • ICC Men's T20 World Cup Day 6: Varun shines again, the Azzurri's big win and Sri Lanka crush Oman
    2026/02/12
    In this episode of the show, Baldy and Stu look back at Day 6 of the 2026 Men’s T20 World Cup, which featured three games: Sri Lanka v Oman, Nepal v Italy and India v Namibia. We start the show by discussing India's cruise to victory against Namibia, which saw the return of Jasprit Bumrah and another masterclass from Varun Chakravarthy. There were runs from Ishan Kishan at the top, and a bit of a stutter at the death, mixed in with some nice bowling from Gerhard Erasmus and Bernard Scholtz, as India got the job done before their big clash with Pakistan over the weekend. In the second match of the day, it was the Azzurri of Italy who shone bright, powering to a 10-wicket win against a Nepal side fresh off pushing England so close in their opening game of the tournament. Kalugamage's three wickets led the Italian spinners, before the Mosca brothers made short work of Nepal's 124-run target. Sri Lanka began the day with a comprehensive victory over Oman, who have found it hard work in this tournament so far. Fast fifties for Pavan Rathnayake, Kusal Mendis & a record-breaking half-century for Dasun Shanaka took the home side to 225, which they defended with ease. To round out the show, the boys look ahead to Day 7, which sees Zimbabwe face Australia in Group B, Canada v UAE and a key game for the Netherlands against the USA to keep the pressure on India and Pakistan in Group A.
