The Cricket Slouch

A fun cricket podcast by a group of friends, who worship at the altar of the 22-yard strip bookended by 3 sticks. We love to talk cricket, have a laugh, include new people, express some polarising opinions (perhaps) and hope to help spread the word of the sport to far reaching corners. We try to keep it as kosher as we can, but there may be a few expletives every now and then. Huge thanks to Noman W and Umangi H for the brilliant podcast cover art. Tune composed using Garage Band and limited imagination.

The Cricket Slouch

The Meat-in-the-Sandwich episode of the WC Preview.

September 17, 2023 • S.P • Season 2 • Episode 10

Greetings everyone.

After starting the Ten Team Tournament preview with India-Pak the last time round, and with next one planned for Aus-Eng, this has become the Meat-in-the-Sandwich episode, and it is a big chunk of meat too as we discuss the squads put forward by New Zealand, South Africa, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Netherlands and Afghanistan.

We talk using food metaphors, sarcasm, fond nostalgia, play on words, and end with the meaning of Shardul, who is cricket's Rajnikanth.
