Scotland and Netherlands say the ICC's plans to shrink the men's 2027 Cricket World Cup to 12 teams will make it harder for associate nations to qualify. Alison Mitchell, Charu Sharma and Brett Sprigg discuss the impact this will have on the sport. Three Test series get underway this week with Bangladesh in Australia, India travel to Sri Lanka and England host Pakistan. Brett says the Tigers deserve their chance to play against Australia and Charu believes spin will play a big role in the sub-continent if the monsoon rains stay away. Meanwhile, Alison can't pick a clear favourite in the England v Pakistan series. And move over Cristiano Ronaldo, Madeira and Portugal has a new sporting icon. We hear from Moises Henriques on why he swapped the Aussie gold and green for Portugal's red and green as he hopes to get them qualified for the next T20 World Cup.Photo: BANGALORE, INDIA - NOVEMBER 12: Roelof van der Merwe of Netherlands reacts during the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup India 2023 between India and Netherlands at M.

Spirituality Keeps Me GroundedAmol Anil Majumdar is the legendary first-class cricketer who was appointed by the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) as the head coach of the India women's national cricket team in 2023. It was under his sterling guidance and stewardship that the Indian women's cricket team lifted the 2025 Women's Cricket World Cup on November 2, 2025, in Mumbai. A primarily right-handed batsman, he held, for a brief period, the record for the most runs scored in the Ranji Trophy, India's premier domestic first-class cricket competition. In fact, he finished his Ranji career with 9,205 runs, which remains among the competition's highest-ever tallies.He was one of the guest speakers at the Summer Course on Indian Culture and Spirituality at Prasanthi Nilayam in July 2026. Following his inspiring talk to the students in the Poorna Chandra Auditorium, he visited the Sri Sathya Sai Media Centre and reflected on how spirituality had been his silent strength through the tumultuous journey of his cricketing career, and how the basis of this resilience was his connection with Sai.

Smriti Mandhana joins Stumped to discuss India's strong dressing room culture and the supportive environment that has helped shape the team's success. The elegant left-hander also reflects on winning the 2025 Cricket World Cup and on playing in the historic Test match at Lord's and in The Hundred. Alison Mitchell, Jim Maxwell and Charu Sharma reflect on her remarkable impact and discuss what India must do to consistently challenge the world's best sides. The team also debates whether Joe Root is the right person to captain England after Ben Stokes revealed concerns about the toll the role could take on him, while insisting he wishes Root nothing but success. Plus, Charu has some advice for Babar Azam following Pakistan's 1-1 series draw with West Indies. He wants the Pakistan skipper to relax and enjoy his leadership ahead of facing England later this month.

Rethinking Leadership in Sport & Business: How Ed Smith Uses Humanities & AI to Shape Future Leaders   This week's podcast special guest is Ed Smith – former professional cricketer, author, broadcaster, ex-Chief Selector for England Cricket (2018–2021), President of Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC), and Director of the Institute for Sport and Humanites (ISH). From opening the batting for Kent as a teenager to helping England win the Cricket World Cup and now shaping leaders through education and AI, Ed's career spans elite performance, leadership, and deep thinking about what sport can teach us about life. He's uniquely placed at the intersection of high-performance sport, humanities, and emerging technologies like AI. In this conversation, Ed shares how his experiences in professional cricket, writing, and academic leadership have shaped his philosophy on amateur vs professional mindsets, balance vs obsession, and how education and AI can help us rethink leadership in both sport and business.   What You'll Discover: Ed's unexpected leap into professional cricket: How he went from Kent U19s to opening the batting in the County Championship almost overnight – and why loving the game and being a good learner matters more than being "ahead" when you're young. Amateur vs professional mindset – and why we need both: The core ideas from his book What Sport Tells Us About Life – why "amateur" shouldn't mean sloppy, how to protect the joy that got you into sport in the first place, and how to carry that into a professional environment. The real meaning of balance in high performance: Why Ed's best seasons (1997 and 2003) came when he was stretched off the field – studying for university exams and writing a book – and what this teaches athletes and leaders about not sacrificing everything for performance. Using your 'extra' time as an athlete wisely: Ed's candid view that many professional athletes have more time than they think – and how using that time for education, reflection, or a second discipline can actually improve on-field performance. The Institute for Sport and Humanities (ISH) and leadership development: How Ed founded ISH while serving as England's Chief Selector, the type of leaders they're developing (from players like Matt Fisher and Heather Knight to professionals across sports), and why critical thinking, humanities, and AI now sit at the heart of modern leadership. Flow state, form, and the 'absence of irrelevant thought': Ed's practical take on flow – how to focus on enjoying concentration rather than runs or results, how to handle bad form, and why being fully present (and not thinking about anything else) is a powerful competitive advantage. Lessons for business leaders from elite sport: How ideas like balance, deep focus, love of the work, and intelligent use of technology (including AI) translate directly from the dressing room to the boardroom – and what leaders in any industry can borrow from Ed's playbook.   Connect with Ed here:   Website: https://www.edsmithwriter.com/ ISH Website: https://www.sportshumanities.org/

We look back at the best of Stumped in 2025 which gives you a chance to listen to some of the standout moments from the last twelve months, including our trip to India. We hear from former India captain Anjum Chopra on what it meant to her to witness history being made, when India women won their first ever Cricket World Cup. Plus when Alison Mitchell was in Guwahati, she spoke to the Secretary of the BCCI, Devajit Saikia, who told her how the Women's Premier League has been integral in growing women's cricket in the country.Back in July, cricket was somewhat divided after South Africa's Wiaan Mulder remarkably passed up the opportunity to break Brian Lara's record for the highest individual score in a Test innings. Mulder, captaining South Africa for the first time, was 367 not out at lunch on the second day of the second Test against Zimbabwe in Bulawayo when he declared in their first innings. Mulder was just 33 runs short of Lara's record 400 that he scored for West Indies against England in Antigua in 2004. Alison Mitchell, Jim Maxwell and Charu Sharma debate if Mulder made the correct decision.Former India International Cheteshwar Pujara and his wife Puja Pabari joined the Stumped podcast to share how they navigate life in the public eye. They have written a book and told us how the process came about and reveal what Cheteshwar is like behind closed doors.And we hear from Tommy Lamb who has been travelling from England to Australia for the Ashes without using a plane.Photo: Harmanpreet Kaur of India celebrates after taking the catch to dismiss Nadine De Klerk of South Africa and lead the teams out her team to victory in the ICC Women's Cricket World Cup India 2025 Final match between India and South Africa at Dr. DY Patil Sports Academy on November 02, 2025 in Navi Mumbai, India.
