Hello and welcome to the The Cricket Slouch, a podcast for fans of all persuasions.We apologise for the long hiatus since the last episode at the conclusion of the BGT and today, we bring you our 3rd anniversary episode where in I am joined by my usual buddies Sandeep,  Ajit and Shounak to talk about a range of topics.Some of these are -1) Consolidation of power among the Big Three in the ICC via the likely proposal of two tier test cricket calendar.2) Saudi entering the game with their Grand Slam model.3) More Associate teams playing multi-nation tournaments now, thus bringing more context to those encounters.4) WPL's success heralding a better future for women's competition and payment.5) MLC looks set to be a fixture on the calendar and thus it could usher in American style professionalism and accountability in the sport. 6) The uptake of data and analysis by most teams now, esp in T20 franchises. 7) Amazon purchasing broadcasting rights (in Australia) to Asia Cup and u-19 tournaments.8) ICC launching a Challenger Trophy. Also ICC creating a task force to look into best supporting Afghan women's cricket. Allowance for using one ball per innings instead of two.As usual, a heartfelt and sincere thank you to all the contributors and listeners, without whom we would never be able to continue doing what we do.

Hi there! Welcome to Episode 297 of Never on the Backfoot Podcast. This episode takes a deep dive into the current state of the women's game in India. From the BCCI's recently announced central contracts to the surprising venue choices for the Women's ODI World Cup 2025, and the decision to stall WPL expansion, we break down what each of these developments really means. Is equal pay just about match fees, or should equity be about the full picture—contracts, infrastructure, and investment? Are World Cup venues like Mullanpur and Raipur truly geared for a global event, or does this reflect missed ambition? And why is the WPL, despite its early success, being kept from growing? Join us for a sharp, no-nonsense conversation on the decisions that are quietly shaping the future of women's cricket in India. On the podcast today for this discussion, we have Prathik Desai joining us. He is a chartered accountant/finance guy who now writes crypto for a living and has grown up from worshipping cricket to critiquing it in the past two decades.

Hi there! Welcome to Episode 281 of Never on the Backfoot Podcast. In this episode, we dive deep into the psychological and emotional landscape of the IPL & WPL 2025 auctions.

What happens when a talented player is snubbed despite their potential? And, most importantly, how do these athletes navigate the highs and lows of an auction that can make or break their careers?

My guest on The Game Changers today is cricketing legend Charlotte Edwards who shares her extraordinary journey from making her England debut at just 16 to becoming one of the sport's most influential figures as a player and coach. Breaking countless records throughout her 20-year playing career, Charlotte was appointed England Captain in 2006 and led the team to win the Women's Cricket World Cup in 2009 along with three outright Ashes series.  Following her playing career, Charlotte was appointed Director of Women's Cricket at Hampshire in 2018 and has gone on to become a much respected and hugely successful coach for teams in the ECB's domestic league, The Hundred, WPL in India and WBBL in Australia. Awarded an MBE in 2009 and a CBE in 2014, in 2022 Charlotte was inducted into the ICC Cricket Hall of Fame. She even has a competition named after her – The Charlotte Edwards Cup.Thank you to Sport England who support The Game Changers Podcast with a National Lottery award.Find out more about The Game Changers podcast here: https://www.fearlesswomen.co.uk/thegamechangersHosted by Sue AnstissProduced by Sam Walker, What Goes On MediaA Fearless Women production
