When our regular top order segments collapse in a heap, we need somebody at the back end of the show to get us home. Luckily, we have Michael Bevan joining us in this thrilling season finale to do just that. First, he consolidates with a Short Ball segment in which we discuss his phenomenal 185* (132) for a Rest of the World XI in 2000 and the art of batting (or podcasting) with tailenders. Then he rebuilds the episode by discussing his new Batting Mentor service (battingmentor.com). Finally, he brings us home in dramatic fashion with our 'Are You Smarter Than A Fifth Grade Cricketer?' quiz, in which we play a quick game of 'Guess the New Michael Bevan'. Enjoy!Short Ball video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RIgQbQGHr2sSign up for Michael Bevan's Batting Mentor service here: https://www.battingmentor.com/
