This is a podcast series on the history of cricket through the people and moments that made the game. Series two is a look at race in cricket via Basil D'Oliveira and a few other stories. This season is one theme all the way through. Series one was 11 stand alone episodes, we covered batting evolution, the wrong'un, reverse swing, and the crazy first Test match. Double Century is a team effort. Our fact checkers are Abhishek Mukerjee (@ovshake42) and Bertie Moores (@MooresBertie). The Gwijo squad (@gwijosquad) did the singng. Nick McCorriston is our producer (@Nickamc).
