“Some people eagerly await the hot new Kendrick or Beyonce record, some camp out to get their hands on the latest Apple device, and some lose their minds for the big Marvel blockbuster that’s been teased for years. But I, and many others, genuinely look forward to the next episode of the Wisden Cricket Weekly podcast like excited children waiting for Christmas. Yas and the team have put together one of the best cricket podcasts out there, comprising original and insightful comment and opinion with all aspects of (primarily English) cricket covered – from squad selection and future player prospects to corruption within the game and it’s problems with race and class. Each guest has something different to add, offering a variety of perspectives and takes on the complexities of modern cricket. And well before he joined the pod, I’ve long maintained that Mark Butcher is one of the most refreshing voices of the ex-pro punditerati, so who better to add to this fantastic collective of accomplished journalists than him. Great team, great pod. The only thing that could improve it would be to make it more frequent. And maybe the addition of a spin off show where Phil just goes off on a beautifully poetic tangential monologue. Keep up the great work guys. I can’t wait for the next one.”
