005: England vs West Indies (summer 2004): Flintoff and Giles thwart Lara, Rob Key's double ton and Mike Powell's spare rib.
Listen now
Description
We take another trip down noughties memory lane to relive the West Indies' 2004 tour of England. We recall Rob Key's double ton, Flintoff's golden run of form, Giles' resurgence,  Trescothick's twin tons and Strauss's continued dream debut summer. We encounter a fresh-faced Dwayne Bravo for the first time, as well as meeting belligerent Chris Gayle and objurgate Shivnarine Chanderpaul and iconic Brian Lara in his last tour of England.    Graeme and Andrew also ponder a Beer XI, the world's first international T20 and some young guns making waves in country cricket - one called Cook and the other called  Bell.  ---- Freddie's sledge of Tino best: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZoxfK2jn03Y  Freddie's 167: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrsXiLVdsc4 Cricket's crystal ball: http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/funny_old_game/3356695.stm http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/funny_old_game/3356809.stm   IG: @mindthewindowstinopod Email: [email protected]
