Hosted by the same Fox Cricket voices you know from the commentary box, this podcast feels like pulling up a chair in the dressing room long after stumps have been drawn. Here, the analysis gets room to breathe. You'll hear extended reflections on the day's pivotal moments, whether it's a session-changing spell of bowling or a patient century that shifted the match.
