The Brisbane Heat are looking to break a two game losing streak in their New Years Day clash at the Gabba against the winless Melbourne Stars. Brisbane Heat leg-spinner Mitchell Swepson told Jason Matthews on 4BC Wide World of Sports, "They [Melbourne Stars] could probably beat any team on their day, so we'll have to be on our game." "We'll have to be sharp because we know if one or two of those guys fire on the night, they'll be good and they'll be hard to beat," Swepson said. "We'll be looking to bounce back from a couple of stiff games from us, so it should be a really good contest."See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Sydney Sixers cricketer talks about their upcoming WBBL clash against the Melbourne Stars

Have we just witnessed the greatest opening week of a WBBL season? Meg Lanning is back and she led the Melbourne Stars to an upset win over the Sydney Sixers on their home turf. But then, barely believable scenes unfolded as the Stars were rolled for 29 by the Adelaide Strikers! A host of young quicks including Milly Illingworth and Chloe Ainsworth have lit up the competition. The Sydney Thunder have shaken the underdog tag with Phoebe Litchfield in scintillating touch. And of course, there's Grace Harris. Grace whacked an unbeaten 136no - the highest WBBL score of all time at North Sydney Oval - and in the process, sent the internet into overdrive by hitting a super six with a broken bat. This week on the Scoop, Brisbane Heat allrounder Georgia Voll joins Laura and Emily to recap a wild opening week and the Heat's dream start to the season. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

We are midway through the World Cup and it's fair to say that no one knows anything, none of it matters because India is a nearly unbackable favourite and the ICC are meeting at the end of the tournament anyway to decide the future of the format.

Unfortunately Adam Zampa is not on the show, but Matt Roller from ESPNCricInfo is and he joins us from Bangalore in India to tell us how much air one can chew, if any of the teams near India are good and what the feeling is around the World Cup generally, from a fan's perspective.  Finally, Kim Garth and Tess Flintoff from the Melbourne Stars join us in the studio to discuss being rolled for 29, pumping around Europe before a call-up to the Australian squad, cricket in Ireland, Alyssa Healy's hand, Grace Harris hitting sixes with a broken bat and stupid questions men ask.
