About this episode

The episode discusses Cricket Australia's chair Mike Baird's dual role and recent developments in women's cricket and player bans.

Season 20, Episode 8: Note: an earlier version of this podcast confused NRMA motoring association (not a CA sponsor) with NRMA insurance (CA's major Test series sponsor). They're different companies with shared branding. Apologies. Nonetheless, this story is strange, with CA chair Mike Baird planning to double up that job with being CEO of NRMA motoring association. How is that possible? Also this week, women's T20 World Cup news comes apace, while a slew of players are being banned from various levels of cricket for a range of offences.
