Pete and Gideon catch up on an extraordinary week in cricket geopolitics, with the IPL and PSL becoming the front line of the brooding conflict between India and Pakistan, causing international cricketers to scatter, before a tenuous cease fire compelled their return. Special guests: Sam Perry and Ian Higgins from The Grade Cricketer, fresh from returning to Australia after being part of the exodus. Oh, did we mention Rohit (definitely) and Virat (probably) retired from Test cricket? It’s hard to keep up but we’ll try. POST SCRIPT: Virat retired after we recorded and reports that Hardie and Bartlett had stayed in India with Ponting were wrong, sorry for repeating them.

And don’t forget we’re livepodding about Virat at noon on the Substack app - or, at least, competence permitting, that’s the intention. What could possibly go wrong?!
Maybe they should rename their show The Big ICL Breakfast.
