161. Will The Hundred Work, with Nathan Hauritz & Ali Martin

The Grade Cricketer

The Hundred starts this week and the ECB have bet the house on it. Is it a moral and financial catastrophe or does Jos Buttler hit a big ball? Thankfully, The Guardian’s Ali Martin joins to give the discussion some credibility. Meanwhile, everyone’s playing white ball stuff with their two’s and three’s: England and India will win the club championship with that kind of depth, while Australia are nowhere. Will still bump and therefore beat England though, so there’s that. Nathan Hauritz joins to talk about rep lids at grade level, replacing Shane Warne, and scenes from the cubicle after Cardiff. #AskTGC is a long-form epic detailing what many are calling “The perfect afternoon in New Zealand”, only this one is ruined by a Gray-Nicolls jockstrap and box.
