Good luck facing Josh Hazlewood this summer, England.With Corby on a break, Ed is joined by Trent Copeland to unpack the ODI series against India - and the big takeaway? Josh Hazlewood looks in ominous touch heading towards the Ashes.The guys break down all the key talking points from the series, including Sharma and Kohli's poetic SCG farewell, check in on the latest from the Sheffield Shield, and dive (again) into the never-ending Ashes selection debate.

What's your favourite Ashes moment? As part of the lead in for the 2025-26 series, legendary ABC commentator Jim Maxwell is breaking down his six favourite memories from a career spanning more than five decades. In this six part special, Jim and Corbin Middlemas pull apart the moments that have defined a famous rivalry. Part one is the saga that has framed the coming clash, the stumping of Jonny Bairstow at Lord's in 2023. 

What's behind the reductive pursuit of “paradise” in travel to the Caribbean? How does tourism continue the legacy of colonialism? And how is this being resisted? We're joined by Angelique Nixon, a scholar and activist at The University of the West Indies at St. Augustine, whose book “Resisting Paradise” examined how tourism shapes Caribbean life and identity, including via deep-rooted notions of “paradise” grounded in colonialism and exploitation. Angelique describes how the Caribbean, a region of such diverse islands, has been constructed a site for the fulfilment of particular desires, while other forms of desire have been suppressed in mainstream narratives. Angelique joins us to discuss this, as well as her new project, “Submerged Freedom”.Plus: Angelique reflects on writing as a “black sexual intellectual”, and describes how Franz Fanon led her to reflect on tourism as “the stagnation of decolonisation” – as reproducing and reinforcing existing racialised inequalities. Also, we celebrate thinkers including the sociologist Kamala Kempadoo, authors Edwidge Danticat, Jamaica Kincaid and Erna Brodber. And we profile the radical Caribbean philosopher Sylvia Wynter, whose work challenged the assumptions of western liberal humanism and highlighted the importance of working on ourselves as part of decolonial work.Guest: Angelique Nixon; Host: Rosie Hancock; Executive Producer: Alice Bloch; Sound Engineer: David Crackles; Music: Joe Gardner; Artwork: Erin AnikerFind more about Uncommon SenseEpisode ResourcesBy Angelique NixonResisting Paradise (2015)On Being a Black Sexual Intellectual (2019)Angelique's academic profile, including information on her latest project, “Submerged Freedom”CAISO – feminist non-profit civil society organisation committed to ensuring wholeness, justice and inclusion for Trinidad and Tobago's LGBTQI+ communitiesFrom the Sociological Review FoundationUncommon Sense episodes on: Europeans, with Manuela Boatcă (2023) and Margins, with Rhoda Reddock (2024)Len Garrison: Archives and Self-Esteem – audio essay by Hannah Ishmael (2025)Further resources“Island Futures” – Mimi Shiller“An Eye for the Tropics” – Krista Thompson“Sexing the Caribbean” – Kamala Kempadoo“Paradise and Plantation” – Ian Strachan“The Repeating Island” – Antonio Benítez-Rojo“The Wretched of the Earth” – Franz Fanon“After The Dance” – Edwidge Danticat“A Small Place” – Jamaica KincaidSylvia Wynter: Beyond Man – short introductory video by Al JazeeraSupport our work.

In this episode,  Erica Moiah James talks with Roshini Kempadoo, media artist, photographer, and scholar, whose book Creole in the Archive: Imagery, Presence, and the Location of the Caribbean Figure, has been critical to Erica's work in theorizing the Caribbean archive. Roshini discusses working in the archives at the University of the West Indies, and the particularity of archives in Trinidad and Guyana. They also discuss a common theoretical model in African diaspora scholarship, critical fabulation, which originally indicated the ethical demand for scholars working within archives marked by colonial violence and absence to use tools of fiction and imagination to return embodied existence to individuals, reduced to numbers. Yet this tool of critical fabulation has taken on a life of its own. Erica and Roshini discuss the complications of working in colonial archives and think about the possibilities of limits of presence and absence within these archives. 

In this episode of the show, the Raj, Baldy and Stu look back at a busy week on the cricketing calendar, which saw India wrap up a 2-0 Test series victory against the West Indies, Australia's women continue to roll on in the World Cup and Sean Solia keep Samoa's T20 WC chances alive. We also look ahead to the upcoming series between the Black Caps and England, and provide a live update as South Africa take on Pakistan in the first Test of that series. We start the show in India, where the home side made the West Indies follow-on and looked set for another innings victory, before John Campbell and Shai Hope, with help from Roston Chase, Justin Greaves and Jayden Seales, dug in to make it much more of a contest this time around. We give credit where it's due to both Campbell and Hope, talk about Kuldeep Yadav's performance with ball in hand, take stock market updates on Dhruv Jurel and Sai Sudharsan, dish yet more praise on Shubman Gill and Yashasvi Jaiswal, and look ahead to what's next for both sides. Next up we talk about the Women's World Cup, where the White Ferns have stumbled, Team India have lost two nail-biters and South Africa are charging again after their first-up loss to England. And yet again, Australia, thanks to contributions from almost everyone - including a fantastic hundred from Alyssa Healy - keep marching on. Back on NZ shores, we look forward to the Black Caps taking on England in three T20s and three ODIs - although injuries continue to linger. How will the bowling attack take shape? Can Jimmy Neesham take another step towards World Cup selection? Will Devon Conway find form? And how will Mitchell Santner and Rachin Ravindra slot back into the side? To round out the show, we give a shout out to Sean Solia and Ross Taylor for their efforts for Samoa in the T20 World Cup qualifiers, as well as discussing the in-progress Test between South Africa and Pakistan - another home Test for Pakistan that looks to be dominated by spin. Will this prove to be their best path to the World Test Championship Final? Or is it actually doing more harm than good? We'll be back in your feed next week to discuss more cricket from around the world.

Season 19, Episode 1: It is officially the start of the southern season, because we say so, and what more fitting way to start than with a huge Sheffield Shield round. Stories aplenty, not just about who is trying to make a certain squad, but perhaps a recasting of umpiring as we know it.

There are plenty of places to start when deconstructing where things went wrong in West Indies cricket but do the selectors get their portion of the blame? West Indians love to call for this person and that to be dropped but arguably too many players in WI cricket get dropped before it is even the time to do so. Machel took a look at the batting party that toured Bangladesh in January 2021 and analysed how we got to January 2025 with only Kraigg Braithwaite left. Should selectors take more of the blame - do they make too many unforced errors? As ever please leave a rating, review and subscribe to the Caribbean Cricket Podcast.

In this episode of the show, the team look back at a busy week on the cricketing calendar, which saw Australia's men and women get the better of their New Zealand counterparts, India secure an innings victory in their first Test against the West Indies and Chris Woakes call stumps on his Test career. We start the show in India, where the home side demolished the West Indies by an innings in the first Test. An all-round bowling performance was backed up by hundreds from KL Rahul, Dhruv Jurel & Ravindra Jadeja and some nice catches in the field as India proved they are currently a class above the West Indies. There's talk of the visitors' batting woes, Jurel's future and some spin chat. Next up we talk about the Black Caps v Australia T20 series, which was disrupted by rain but saw Mitch Marsh steal the limelight as the visitors secured a 2-0 series win to retain the Chappell-Hadlee Trophy. There's praise for Tim Robinson's batting, Matt Henry's moustache and plenty of discussion around what we learned from this short series. At the Women's World Cup, Australia inflicted another defeat on New Zealand, but not without a few wobbles along the way. The White Ferns made inroads into the Aussie batting lineup, but it was Ash Gardner's quickfire century that proved to be the difference despite Sophie Devine's impressive response. We also talk about England's big win against South Africa and how that positions them for the remainder of the tournament. To round out the show, there's a quick word of farewell to Chris Woakes, who announced his retirement from Test cricket.

The Nepali national men's cricket team achieved a 2-1 series T20 victory over West Indies in the United Arab Emirates. On the second day of the three-day series, the West Indies' 83-run loss is the lowest total ever posted by a full member against an associate nation. Nepal's 90-run win also represents the biggest winning margin an associate team has recorded over a full member. SBS Nepali spoke with Melbourne-based cricketer Santosh Bastakoti about Nepal's performance and future in cricket. - नेपालले संयुक्त अरब इमिरेट्समा आयोजना भएको टी-२० सिरिज अन्तर्गत सोमवार राति भएको खेलमा वेस्ट इन्डिजलाई ८३ रनमै अलआउट गरेर एसोसिएट राष्ट्रले पूर्ण सदस्य माथि हालसम्मकै सबैभन्दा ठुलो अन्तरको जित हासिल गर्न सफल भएको छ। पूर्ण सदस्य राष्ट्रलाई एउटा एसोसिएट राष्ट्रको ऐतिहासिक जितको रूपमा यसलाई हेरिँदै गर्दा, उक्त खेलमा नेपालले ९० रनको फराकिलो अन्तरले जितेको हो। मङ्गलवार नेपालले वेस्ट इन्डिज विरूद्ध भएको अन्तिम खेलमा भने १० विकेटले हार बेहोरेको छ। सोमवारको खेल पछि मेलबर्नस्थित क्रिकेट खेलाडी एवम् अम्पायर सन्तोष बस्ताकोटीसँग नेपालको प्रदर्शनलाई लिएर एसबीएस नेपालीले गरेको कुराकानी सहितको रिपोर्ट सुन्नुहोस्।

At the back end of 2024 outgoing ICC Chair Greg Barclay suggested the West Indies should into seperate islands and nations. Then news broke that new ICC chair Jay Shah and the head of CA and ECB are planning to introduce a two tier system to test cricket so they can play each other more and make more money. The implication is that West Indies would be one of those teams that would fall into a unprofitable tier two. Predictably this has caused huge outrage. Machel and Santokie had to jump into the studio to address the latest drama in West Indies cricket. As ever please leave a rating, review and subscribe to the Caribbean Cricket Podcast.

Hamas yet to respond to an Israeli and US agreed plan on ending the Gaza war; Australia's Islamic community backs a flotilla bringing aid to the besieged enclave, despite government concerns; and in spor; Nepal triumphs over the West Indies at the end of the T20 series.

In this episode of the show, Baldy and Stu recap the India v Pakistan Asia Cup final and take a brief look at all the cricket to look forward to over the next few months. We start the show by talking about Pakistan's impressive start, with Farhan and Fakhar combining to reach a score of 113-1. And then the wheels fell off as a mixture of excellent spin bowling and poor shot selection led to the collapse of all collapses, which saw Pakistan crumble to be all out for 146. It wasn't all smooth sailing for India, though, who found themselves in trouble at 20-3 before Tilak Varma, Sanju Samson and Shivam Dube played their part in what proved to be an exciting final and one which saw India crowned as Asia Cup champions in 2025. Do Pakistan have enough building blocks for a 2026 T20 World Cup challenge? And is SKY's spot under threat? To round out the show, we make quick mention of a few things we're looking forward to in what shapes as an exciting finish to the calendar year in the world of cricket. We'll be back in your feed again soon to discuss the week that was, which should include India v West Indies, the Chappell-Hadlee T20 series and the Women's World Cup, among other things.
