In this episode of the show, Binksy, Jamie and Stu look back at the fourth Test between England and India, plus New Zealand's victory in the T20 Tri-Series final against South Africa. We also look ahead to the 5th Test in the UK and the Black Caps v Zimbabwe series. We start the show by talking about India's fantastic fightback on days 4 and 5 of the Test at Old Trafford, which saw the series remain at 2-1 with one match to play. There were hundreds for Shubman Gill, Washington Sundar and Ravindra Jadeja, but also some controversy surrounding the conclusion of the day's play. Ben Stokes wasn't happy then, but he'd done plenty to earn his player of the match award, taking a 5-wicket bag and scoring 100 across the course of the Test. Joe Root was equally impressive, and Rishabh Pant's bravery stood out for the visitors. We round out the India v England conversation with a discussion about potential and probable changes the 5th and final Test. To finish the show, Stu chimes in to highlight the Black Caps' unbeaten run to some T20 silverware in Zimbabwe, which culminated in a dramatic final against South Africa. With 7 runs needed from 6 balls, Matt Henry stepped up and, with the help of two fantastic catches in the outfield, closed out the victory for New Zealand.

Despite England's huge 311 run lead and two early Indian wickets, the India third wicket remained intact for the rest of the day as KL Rahul and Shubman Gill knuckled down to the job of drawing the game. The day featured Ben Stokes becoming only the fourth Englishman to score a century and take five wickets in the same Test match. Simin Hughes and Deep Dasgupta evaluate the day and where Stokes ranks in the all-rounders Hall of Fame. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Jon Norman is joined by the former England fast bowler Steve Harmison to look back at Day 4 of the fourth Test between England and India, with India closing on 174-2, but still trailing by 137 runs. They discuss Ben Stokes becoming the first England captain to score a century and take a five-wicket haul in the same Test Match, reflect on potentially match-saving half-centuries from both Shubman Gill and KL Rahul, and debate if England have enough in a bowling attack without Ben Stokes to force a victory in this game. Overseas listeners can hear live ball-by-ball commentary of England's Test series with India on the talkSPORT Cricket YouTube Channel. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

BBC cricket commentator Henry Moeran is joined by India commentator Prakash Wakankar and BBC Sport cricket writer Matt Henry to preview the fourth men's Test match at Old Trafford where England lead 2-1.India captain Shubman Gill accused England of acting contrary to the "spirit of cricket" with time-wasting tactics that sparked a number of confrontations in the dramatic third Test at Lord's. Whereas England captain Ben Stokes stated that both teams 'never crossed the line'. The team debate the contradicting points of view and the sanctity of the "spirit of cricket".

Where did it all go wrong? After an unexpected win at Edgbaston, where Akash Deep, Mohammed Siraj, Shubman Gill and the rest of the Team India showed they've got the heart of a star to level the series at 1-1, Rishabh Pant and KL Rahul forgot the importance of being idle and promptly handed England the opening they needed to get ahead at Lords. England did not let that opportunity slide away, and here we are, with India 2-1 down despite having been the better side for most of the first three Tests. One win, one loss in the past two Tests to review since the last episodes. Siddhant and Aditya aren't looking back in anger, however, because the way India have played, there might just be enough to keep the dream alive of a series win.

It was a heartbreak of epic proportions for India at Lord's. Chasing 193, they were reduced to 82 for 7 and then 112 for 8. Just when it seemed England would wrap things up on the final morning and head in for a relaxed Lord's lunch, Ravindra Jadeja stood tall with a resolute act of defiance. He faced 181 deliveries for a gritty 61, with Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj for company. But did India miss a trick by not being more proactive while Jadeja was batting with the tail? While it may be unfair to expect Jadeja to take undue risks, was there a moment that slipped away? What really led to India's defeat at Lord's, despite having dominated large portions of the Test? Was it Shubman Gill's soft dismissal? Was it poor umpiring? Or the top-order collapse in the second innings? As we head into an eight-day break in the Anderson–Tendulkar Trophy, is it time for India to rethink their playing XI? Will Jasprit Bumrah return for the Manchester Test? In the latest episode of the Sledging Room Podcast, Akshay Ramesh, Saurabh Kumar, and Debodinna Chakraborty unpack the drama and heartbreak of Lord's.

After the humbling at Headingley, not many expected India to bounce back the way they did in Birmingham. Despite piling up over 800 runs in the first Test, India lost after England chased down 371 in the final innings — a stunning blow. But at Edgbaston, it was a different India. Ruthless, clinical, and relentless. Led by Shubman Gill's record-breaking 430-run performance and a sensational 10-wicket haul from Akash Deep, India demolished England and delivered a brutal body blow to Bazball. Did you see that coming from Gill? Criticized for his inconsistent overseas form, he's now silenced his doubters in style — and is on course to break some major world records. As for England — were they arrogant? Did they underestimate India again? Why can't they play for a draw when needed? Are they simply incapable of batting in the traditional way anymore? With India riding high on confidence, and the third Test at Lord's just around the corner, the series hangs in the balance. Who will edge ahead in this enthralling race? All eyes now shift to London.

Neil Manthorp is joined by the former England fast bowler Steve Harmison to look back at India's 336-run win over England, as they level the series at 1-1. They reflect on Shubman Gill's match-winning contribution, and how important it was for him to get his first victory as the new Test captain. They also discuss how England bounce back at Lord's this week, and debate if Jofra Archer comes straight back into the side for the third Test. RevSportz's Subhayan Chakraborthy joins the show to discuss what the win at Edgbaston means for India, and they also look at how Australia's top order is shaping up ahead of the Ashes in Australia this winter. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this episode of the show, the entire Top Order Podcast team gather to discuss the recent Test matches between India and England, and the West Indies and Australia — one which saw a complete reversal of the previous encounter and another that was déjà vu all over again. We start at Edgbaston, where a Shubman Gill masterclass and bags of wickets from Akash Deep and Mohammed Siraj inspired India to a comprehensive 336-run victory over England. We talk about India's selection, Gill's brilliance, how India's seamers stepped up without Jasprit Bumrah, Jamie Smith's star continuing to rise, what went wrong for England and whether either side needs to make changes for the third Test at Lord's. In the second half of the show, we move to Grenada where Australia retained the Frank Worrell Trophy with a Test win in very familiar fashion to the first match of the series. Australia's top order largely struggled, the middle-order dug them out of a hole, the West Indies threatened at times but ultimately the world-class Starc, Hazlewood, Cummins, Lyon quartet (backed up by Beau Webster) took the 20 wickets the Aussies needed to secure a comfortable victory in the end. In addition to all of that, we discuss a step forward from Cam Green and potential changes for the final Test.

Adam Peacock joins you, Brad Haddin & Alyssa Healy to review two tense Test match finishes between Australia and the West Indies, and India and England. We look at the top-order challenges Australia has faced, Cam Green's knock at three, Alex Carey's class in the middle order, and how 'clutch' he and Beau Webster have been. We also touch on Starcy's upcoming 100-Test milestone and discuss West Indies cricket - will we ever see another West Indian player reach 100 Tests? After an average first Test, India have bounced back in sublime form. Shubman Gill is chasing Bradman's record, Bumrah is back, Siraj and Deep are on fire, and there are holes in the English team, with Stokes and the bowlers struggling.
