Sri Lanka Australia Daily, 1st Test, Galle Day 4: 5/9, 7/15, 15 wickets in two sessions. This all combined to Australia recording their fourth biggest win in Test history, which happened to be Sri Lanka's greatest shellacking. Adam and Bharat are at Galle to detail how it all happened and why Matt Kuhnemann's nine-wicket match has more wider significance than just this result.

Women's Ashes Daily, Only Test, MCG Day 3: Alana King's Ashes. That is the only conclusion, after a final day of fizzing leg breaks and endless pressure, bowling from the Shane Warne Stand end on her way to the honours board. Sophie Ecclestone also had her moment, toiling hard in an outmatched team. It ended with intrigue and a dose of hilarity in front of an even-more-world-record crowd, and now the mighty MCG is home again only to the seagulls.

Sri Lanka Australia Daily, 1st Test, Galle Day 3: Jason Holder had it right all those years ago - Dhananjaaaaaaya, what are you doing? His was one of two wickets to fall on a day that was more about the elaborate covers pattern than anything else, but we enjoyed what we saw.

Women's Ashes Daily, Only Test, MCG Day 2: More drops than Ibiza on the second day of the Test, as England somehow forgot which parts were hands and which parts were feet. In the end, the collarbone was the most secure catching receptacle on the day. In the meantime, Annabel Sutherland forged on her reputation as Perry Mach II, on a very strange day while the mighty MCG broke the record for a women's Test crowd.

Sri Lanka Australia Daily, 1st Test, Galle Day 2: Who would've thought Usman Khawaja's first Test double century, now the oldest Australian to get one, would be the day's secondary headline? Thank Josh Inglis for that, who became the 21st Australian man to salute a Test ton at the first time of asking. Adam and Bharat enjoyed that a lot and they're here to tell you more.

Women's Ashes Daily, Only Test, MCG Day 1: The first women's Test at the MCG since 1949 drew a lot more people than they had in 1949, we're betting, as Izzy Westbury joins Geoff at the ground. With Australia bowling first, their XI was a curiosity, but it didn't matter as Alana King kept doing what she does, revving the ball like a motorbike and perplexing England's batters. All that after Afghanistan's women played their first match earlier that morning, with our TFW crew also in attendance at the Junction Oval.

Sri Lanka Australia Daily, 1st Test, Galle Day 1: With a simple nudge to mid-on, Steve Smith moved to another special level, completing his mission to 10,000 Test runs. But he was far from done, going on to post three figures for the 35th time, as Usman Khawaja made a ton of his own for the first time since June 2023. Adam and Bharat are two tired boys on the roof at Galle.

Sri Lanka Australia Daily, 1st Test, Galle preview: Another day, another series. Plenty of conjecture around the Australian squad about how the team will be constructed in Galle, so why not go to two journalists who always have their fingers on the pulse, Bharat Sundaresan and Andrew Fidel Fernando.

Season 17, Ep 21: Izzy Westbury joins for a weekly show, and there's a genuine question on the table. Tom Curran is the latest Englishman to go perambulating for no particular reason while the ball was live, then to think he was entitled to be spared the consequences. Also, the run-up to the Women's Ashes Test and the Australian men's Sri Lanka Test, a belting win for West Indies in Pakistan, some peculiar scorecards from Malayia for the women's under-19s tournament, Rocky Flintoff hits some dingers, and Sophie Devine hits the brakes.

Meanwhile, a vintage set of fielding highlights decorated the other half of the innings. Isabelle Westbury is in no mood to hold back, joining Geoff from Adelaide.

Women's Ashes Daily, 2nd T20, Canberra: We finally got a close one, a real genuine close one, with Danni Wyatt-Hodge and Heather Knight turning it on in pursuit of Australia's big score that was built by Beth Mooney, Tahlia McGrath, and crowd favourite Grace Harris. But the way this ended has to be seen (or heard about) to be believed. Absurd scenes at Manuka. Isabelle Westbury joins Geoff Lemon.

Women's Ashes Daily, 1st T20, Sydney: England talked up their chances in the 20-over segment of the tour, and Australia had a couple of big omissions with injury, so it was time for new players to do their thing. Phoebe Litchfield certainly did hers, Alana King came back for her first match in the format in nearly two years, and Sophia Dunkley returned to England colours with a blazing bat. A run-fest at the SCG. Isabelle Westbury joins Geoff Lemon.

Women's Ashes Daily, 3rd ODI, Hobart: Ash Gardner has been a superstar for a while, but one thing has eluded her. A century for Australia. Not any longer, after her massive repair job when England made the early running. And let's throw in the best catch of her career. Bharat Sundaresan joins Geoff Lemon.

The Greatest Season That Was - The Final Frontier – Colin Miller:
During the 2020-21 Border-Gavaskar Trophy series in Australia, The Greatest Season That Was pod focused its attention on the relationship between the cricketing giants over the decades, some 20 years from the staggering 2001 encounter in India. After the home side came back from the dead at Kolkata, it was all to play for in Chennai. Could Steve Waugh’s men now respond, or had the tide been irreversibly turned by VVS, Dravid and Harbhajan Singh? One call made by the visitors was to bring in a second spinner – a man they called Funky. Fresh from being named as Australia’s Test player of the year, the versatile veteran put in a fine performance in another thriller, which came ever so close to getting the job done. Adam Collins, Dan Brettig and Shannon Gill spoke with Colin Miller where he was living at the time, Las Vegas.

Women's Ashes Daily, 2nd ODI, Junction Oval, Melbourne: Endings don't come much more ridiculous than this. England bowl brilliantly, field well, falter with the bat but still have the chance to tie up the series on level points after two games. And then... that. What the hell just happened? Alex Malcolm from Cricinfo joins Geoff to try to break it down.

The Greatest Season That Was - The Final Frontier – Mike Kasprowicz:
During the 2020-21 Border-Gavaskar Trophy series in Australia, The Greatest Season That Was pod focused its attention on the relationship between the cricketing giants over the decades, some 20 years from the staggering 2001 encounter in India. Of all the moments in that riveting series, none live in the memory quite like the Kolkata Test, where Australia were bossing the hosts and enforced the follow-on. What happened goes down as one of cricket’s great partnerships, decisive in turning in the tide against Steve Waugh’s men. One of them was Mike Kasprowicz – a man who became his generation’s subcontinental specialist. He joined Adam Collins, Daniel Brettig and Shannon Gill to recall the Eden Gardens epic.
