Send us a textHello and welcome everyone to another episode, in which we look back at the two tests across the Tasman Sea, the WI-NZ test match and the 2nd Ashes test match. I am joined by the usual triumvirate of Sandeep, Ajit and Shounak and we discuss how well Windies managed to save the game, albeit NZ were a couple of players short in the 4th innings. And then we absolutely thrash the lame excuses Eng has made after this loss, look at how they have continued to perpetuate their weaknesses when Australia appears to have put in a better performance. Finally, we also pay our respects to Robin Smith, a legend of the game from the late 980s to mid 1990s, the purveyor of a great cut shot. May he rest in peace.

The Black Caps have their nose in front of the West Indies aft stumps on Day 2 of the second cricket test at the Basin Reserve. The Windies will resume on 32 for two, still trailing New Zealand by 41 runs with eight second innings wickets in hand. NZME sports broadcaster Andrew Alderson joined D'Arcy to discuss.

Australia still might eek out a win in the Windies, but the top order looks ragged. Jason Gillespie provides analysis from Barbados. In the AFL, Carlton fans have vandalised their own spiritual home. In the NRL, Penrith are inexplicably rising again. The Lions have been in WA for under a week but found reason to complain ahead of the clash with the Force. Sean Maloney reports from Perth.

Pat Cummins was clear that he saw the World Test Championship final as the end of one cycle and the start of a new one. Something of a re-set. That has translated to Sam Konstas and Josh Inglis into the Test team and Cameron Green annointed as a long term number three. As this team takes on the Windies, what does Gideon Haigh make of the Test team's re-set? Featured: Gideon Haigh, writer, Cricket Et Al. Subscribe to the ABC Sport Newsletter
