In this episode of the show, Binksy, Baldy and Stu look back at the fourth Ashes Test between Australia and England, which saw the visitors secure their first victory on Australian soil in almost 15 years. We start the show by talking about our experiences of yet another two-day Test. For Binksy, as an English fan, was this a hollow victory since the series has already been lost? Or a joyous, historic moment since wins have been so hard to come by in Australia? We also discuss whether the narrative needs to change as Test cricket evolves - do two-day Tests have to be a disappointment? If we're given maximum entertainment, is that not enough to satisfy our hunger for the game? As the episode continues, the conversation inevitable turns to the pitch, plus the implications for Cricket Australia of such a short game. Are batters simply not good enough any more? Or did the groundstaff get this one horribly wrong? From there, we move to highlighting individual players, starting with Josh Tongue. What made him so successful on this surface? And did England miscalculate what was needed from a bowling point of view in this series? We also discuss whether Jacob Bethell's bright and breezy second-innings knock could spell the end for Ollie Pope. We also touch on Australia's batting, which, despite the 3-1 scoreline, still appears to have plenty of questions to answer. To round out the show, we look ahead to the options facing both sides for the final Test in Sydney, and what's riding on the match. Gus Atkinson's hamstring means at least one change for England, and will Todd Murphy get another opportunity for Australia? We'll be back in your feed again soon with more from the cricketing world.

In Episode 83, our enthusiasm is undimmed by India's supremely sub-par showing in the Caribbean. As the BCCI continues to muck up the 2023 ODI World Cup, we remember previous better conducted cricket events, such as the Cognizant office tournament. We start talking about Mukesh Kumar, and end up making as many detours as possible, and finish by talking about Kuldeep Yadav, whose run of rotten luck continues thanks to the terrible puns we subject him to. In between times, a full week after the Rashomon Ashes ended 2-2, we try to decipher who actually won it, because everyone, their uncle and the ICC has their own take on the matter. Hardik Pandya may or may not feature in a future episode of Bits and Pieces. (If he does, he will be unique.)

Ollie Pope, Ben Duckett and Joe Root all gifted their wickets to Australia's telegraphed short-ball plan, Duckett falling for 98 and missing out on a maiden Ashes hundred. The three wickets fell for 34 runs before Harry Brook, who had several near misses in his 45, and captain Ben Stokes, with a calm 17 from 57 balls, took England to 278-4, 138 behind. The carelessness of England's batting was compounded by the fact key Australia spinner Nathan Lyon was off the field with a calf injury that will be assessed overnight. Steve Smith earlier completed his 32nd Test hundred before being dismissed for 110 by Josh Tongue. That was part of an Australia collapse of five wickets for 65 runs on Thursday morning, with Tongue and Ollie Robinson finishing with three wickets apiece.

Earlier in the day, the highlight of the morning session saw Jonny Bairstow pick up and carry a 'Just Stop Oil' protester from the field of play before the start of the second over.
