The ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2023 is here, and the Top Order Podcast has you covered with regular game reviews and recaps.In this episode of the show, we discuss the first semi-final, between India and the Black Caps.The hours before the game were filled with social media controversy about the pitch, but out in the middle it was a run-fest as India piled on nearly 400 at the Wankhede.From Rohit's fast start to fantastic innings from Shubman Gill and Shreyas Iyer that will be overshadowed by Virat Kohli's 50th ODI century, it was a brilliant display of batting from the home side. Was there anything the Black Caps could have done to slow down India?But even with that mammoth score, New Zealand's chase gave India a scare thanks to a Daryl Mitchell and Kane Williamson partnership that put them in within striking distance before Mohammad Shami put an end to that with a remarkable 7 wicket haul that sent India to the final.We'll be back again tomorrow to review the second semifinal between Australia and South Africa, but until then please also take the time to give us a like, follow, share or subscribe on all our channels (@toporderpod on Twitter & Facebook, and @thetoporderpodcast on Instagram & YouTube) and a (5-Star!) review at your favourite podcast provider, or tell a friend to download.

From there, things went pretty much to script for the Black Caps (aside from a few wickets towards the end of their chase), with early wickets to Trent Boult and another Mitchell Santner masterclass highlighting the bowling effort.Baldy and Stu discuss the positives and the areas still to tidy up for New Zealand, plus all the permutations for Pakistan and Afghanistan as their task to pass the Black Caps to secure a semi-final spot became much tougher after this result.We'll be back again tomorrow with more news and views, but until then please also take the time to give us a like, follow, share or subscribe on all our channels (@toporderpod on Twitter & Facebook, and @thetoporderpodcast on Instagram & YouTube) and a (5-Star!) review at your favourite podcast provider, or tell a friend to download.

Even in this one-sided content there were some highlights for Sri Lanka as Dilshan Madushanka picked up his maiden five-for, dismissing Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill, Virat Kohli, Shreyas Iyer and Suryakumar Yadav. But was that enough to win him the coveted CricInfo MVP award?The plaudits keep coming for Mohammad Shami, but Raj, Baldy, and Binksy cannot agree on the best bowler for India.

The ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2023 is here, and the Top Order Podcast has you covered with regular game reviews and recaps.In this episode of the show, we discuss the Day 25 match between India and England.The home side are unbeaten, with Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma and co looking unstoppable so far in this tournament, but they face an England squad who came to India as one of the tournament favourites.England began like it's 2019 and for a while there Willey and Woakes had England fans believing they'd found the fun again. But all that is old is new again for Indian captain Rohit Sharma who put away the swashbuckling starts he's been treating us with to steer his side to 229. A total that proved just too much for England to compete with.In the second half it was all praise for Japsrit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami - two excellent spells left England with too big a mountain to climb.

It wasn't a perfect performance from either side, but flaws make for great heroes.From Rachin Ravindra to David Warner, from Travis Head to Darryl Mitchell, and Glenn Maxwell to Jimmy Neesham, it was mostly batting that won praise from Baldy and Raj in this recap. But who can forget the great spell from Glenn Phillips!Good things happen in threes folks - tune in tomorrow for what could be a hattrick of great encounters following England and India...

The ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2023 is here, and the Top Order Podcast has you covered with regular game reviews and recaps.In this episode of the show, we discuss the Day 22 match between England and Sri Lanka.Both sides have performed well below their own expectations so far in the tournament - a must-win game for England and Sri Lanka in order to keep their semi-final chances alive. Who would seize the opportunity?Sadly for Binksy, not England. Three changes to reinstate the all-rounders missing from the last up defeat did nothing to resurrect the campaign of the defending champions. England were in the game in fits and starts, but it was Sri Lanka that took home the chocolates and welcomed the evergreen Angelo Mathews back to ODI cricket.Both sides still have plenty of work to do, and for England a lot relies on Joe Root, Chris Woakes, Dawid Malan and Jos Buttler finding some form.Binksy and Baldy turn their eye to the weekend and another exciting fixture list that could sort the wheat from the chaff in terms of the teams vying for semi-final spots.But the question remains - can anyone catch Virat, Rohit, Jasprit and this Indian side?

The ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2023 is here, and the Top Order Podcast has you covered with regular game reviews and recaps.In this episode of the show, we discuss the Day 21 match between Australia and the Netherlands.The Netherlands have equipped themselves well in this tournament so far, but it was all about Australia today as they improved their chances no end with a record-breaking performance led by the fastest century ever in a men's World Cup by Glenn Maxwell and a second consecutive hundred from David Warner.There was also runs for Steve Smith and Marnus Labuschagne, while Adam Zampa's slight dip in form seems to be over as he cleaned up the tail to bring Australia home. Baldy, Binksy and Stu broke down all that and more, including an exciting few days ahead for the tournament.

Is Heinrich Klaasen the greatest finisher of all time? Why is Quinton de Kock retiring from ODIs after this World Cup? All that and plenty more is right here for your listening pleasure.We'll be back again tomorrow with more news and views, but until then please also take the time to give us a like, follow, share or subscribe on all our channels (@toporderpod on Twitter & Facebook, and @thetoporderpodcast on Instagram & YouTube) and a (5-Star!) review at your favourite podcast provider, or tell a friend to download.

The ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2023 is here, and the Top Order Podcast has you covered with regular game reviews and recaps.We're no longer calling them upsets...Afghanistan were brilliant again overnight, defeating Pakistan for the first time and recording their second win in three matches. Afghanistan took full toll as their four spinners (yes, that's not a misprint) in Mujeeb Ur Rahman, Noor Ahmed, Rashid Khan and Mohammad Nabi contained Pakistan to 282/7. Pakistan might be guilty of not remembering their homework as Afghanistan got off to another flying start, before bringing home a very professional run-chase that has Pakistan's World Cup aspirations teetering.From missing homework to England suddenly having hope again, Baldy and Binksy dissect another magnificent win for Afghanistan and the implications for the back half of the tournament.We'll be back again tomorrow with more news and views, but until then please also take the time to give us a like, follow, share or subscribe on all our channels (@toporderpod on Twitter & Facebook, and @thetoporderpodcast on Instagram & YouTube) and a (5-Star!) review at your favourite podcast provider, or tell a friend to download.

Enter Mohammed Shami, Jasprit Bumrah and co., who fought back brilliantly to restrict the Black Caps to 274.When India walked to the crease, it was Rohit Sharma who set the tone for everyone to follow, and although New Zealand continued to pick up wickets, another Virat Kohli special and an important contribution from Ravindra Jadeja saw them home with two overs to spare.

Australia's 2023 ICC Men's Cricket World Cup is officially back on track with a 62-run win over Pakistan in Bangalore. Centuries to David Warner and Mitch propelled Australia to a mammoth 9-367, but an impressive opening stand of 135 put Pakistan in a position to chase down the target. Australia needed a breakthrough it was delivered by Marcus Stoinis, who struck twice in his first two overs, with Adam Zampa taking four wickets to secure the win.

Enter Kuldeep Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja, who took wickets and slowed the run rate as India took a firm grip on the game that they never released.Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill played their part, but Virat Kohli's unbeaten hundred guided India to another comfortable win.

In a case of Double Dutch Delight, The Netherlands pulled off another remarkable upset, made more remarkable by the dire straits they were in three-quarters of the way through their innings.

The ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2023 is here, and the Top Order Podcast has you covered with regular game reviews and recaps.In this episode Binksy, Raj, and Baldy get together to break down India vs. Afghanistan, and preview the clash between Australian and South Africa.What can we take from the Indian performance? There certainly seems to be nothing that can stop India at the moment, but how much are they missing Shubman Gill? Afghanistan surprised a little with the bat, but was the decision to hold back Rashid a turning point in the match?Looking forward to Aus x SA Thursday night, it's a must-win game for both sides. The new surface at Lucknow might be a little bit of an unknown quantity, but who is best placed to exploit those conditions? Is it Klaasen, Miller, and the explosive South African batting, or can Cummins, Starc, and Hazlewood contain the Rainbow Nation? Baldy asks, what will we get from Zampa and Maxwell?We'll be back again tomorrow with more news and views, but until then please also take the time to give us a like, follow, share or subscribe on all our channels (@toporderpod on Twitter & Facebook, and @thetoporderpodcast on Instagram & YouTube) and a (5-Star!) review at your favourite podcast provider, or tell a friend to download.

A post-match football game against the opposition, a beer, and a limousine drive up a mountain. That's how New Zealand fast-bowler Neil Wagner celebrated his side's incredible victory over England in February. Wagner took James Anderson's wicket to beat the tourists by a single run earlier this year, and two weeks later he ran alongside Kane Williamson in their final-ball victory over Sri Lanka. He joins Alison Mitchell, Jim Maxwell and Sunil Gupta to share what it's like to be at the heart of two of the greatest ever finishes to a Test match. Plus, with England and New Zealand set to face off in a warm-up series for the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup, we'll get Wagner's views on who the favourites are for the tournament. We preview the Asia Cup, which finally gets under way next week following months of doubt over its location. The tournament was originally scheduled to be hosted by Pakistan, but last year the secretary of the Board of Control for Cricket in India, Jay Shah said that it would need to be held in a neutral venue, stating “we can't go there and they can't come here.” As a result, four matches are taking place in Pakistan with the rest hosted by Sri Lanka, including next week's match between Pakistan and India. Plus, Alison Mitchell speaks to the captain of the England Women's Visually Impaired team, Kathryn Jelfs-White. Kathryn is currently leading her country in the team's debut appearance at the IBSA World Games.

As recently as three years ago Spencer Johnson was working as a greenskeeper in Australia, supplementing his income as he recovered from a nightmare spell with injuries. Doctors had doubts over whether he would even be able to run again. Fast forward to the present day and he has just been called up for Australia's T20 matches against South Africa, with a place at the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup still a possibility should a compatriot sustain an injury. He joins Alison Mitchell, Jim Maxwell and Sunil Gupta to share his story and hopes for the future. Having played in the inaugural Major League Cricket series in America, could a stint in the Indian Premier League be on the cards?

Australian historian Ross McMullin has told Callaway's story in his book ‘Life So Full of Promise: further biographies of Australia's lost generation', and he joins us to share more details about his life.

Following crunch talks in the United Arab Emirates, the chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board, Najam Sethi tells Alison Mitchell that there is still hope of holding the Asia Cup in Pakistan. The location of the Asia Cup has been in doubt for some time. Pakistan are due to host the tournament in September, but last year the secretary of the Board of Control for Cricket in India, Jay Shah said that it would need to be held in a neutral venue, stating “we can't go there and they can't come here.” Sethi says he has presented a hybrid model to Asian Cricket Council members, which guarantees that India would not need to play any matches in Pakistan with even the final being played in a neutral venue. Sethi says that if an agreement cannot be reached there is “a very distinct possibility” that Pakistan's government will prevent the national team from travelling to India for the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup in October. Sethi, who is currently chairman on an interim basis, says he expects to continue in the role for a three-year term and one of his plans is to launch a women's league. He says he's already in the process of sanctioning almost one billion rupees for the development of women's cricket in Pakistan. Also on Stumped, Jim Maxwell and Sunil Gupta pay tribute to the careers of England's Katherine Sciver-Brunt and South Africa's Shabnim Ismail, as the fast bowlers both announced their retirement from international cricket. Plus, we're re-joined by former cricket journalist Jenny Thompson, who is travelling around the world to experience women's cricket in as many different countries as she can. Since we last spoke with her in March, she has ticked off Thailand, Cambodia, Singapore, Malaysia, Vietnam, South Korea and Papua New Guinea.
