Hi there! Welcome to Episode 258 of Never on the Backfoot Podcast. In this episode, we discuss the 1st test match featuring India and England.

In this episode, we are in conversation with an emerging star from Uganda, Alpesh Ramjani. 2023 was a storming year for Ugandan cricket, which was helped in no small part by Ramjani, who was both stellar with the ball and valuable with the bat.

Ramjani struck every 11 balls for Uganda and with the bat, Ramjani was more than capable, deployed in different positions in the order across the year.
