Jason Roy’s World Cup exclusion and the future of Test cricket, with Kemar Roach
In a bumper episode, Jo Harman, Ben Gardner, Katya Witney and Yas Rana react to the announcement of England’s World Cup squad which saw the exclusion of 2019 World Cup hero Jason Roy. There’s discussion on the end of the English international summer, Mohammed Siraj’s heroics in the Asia Cup final and Leicestershire’s epic One-Day Cup final victory over Hampshire. Kemar Roach joins the show to talk about what makes Surrey so consistent as well as sharing his thoughts on the current state of both West Indies and Test cricket. Mark Butcher then shares his thoughts on some of the topics touched on by Roach. The author David Tossell hops on to tell us about Sunil Gavaskar’s infamous 36 not out off 174 deliveries in the first ever World Cup game between England and India at Lord’s back in 1975.
