About this episode

Pete and Gid discuss the implications of Cricket Australia's recent press conference on the privatization of Australian cricket.

Pete and Gid recap events of yesterday's press conference where Cricket Australia put Australian cricket on the block, and Mike Baird and Todd Greenberg used to the word 'opportunity' forty-seven times.  But what toll is the constant state of existential crisis having on the game?  And what is the next step in the stop-start process?     Check out our YouTube Channel Get Your 'Free Imran Khan' Shirt Here!
