259. It's Obvious, with Beau Webster

The Grade Cricketer

Australia sweep Pakistan 3-0 in the Tests, but it wasn’t all smooth sailing for the baggy greens thanks to Pakistan’s plucky courage, exciting finds and Qantas’ baggage handlers. Who replaces 26 Test tons at the top of the innings for the Aussies? Are you ready for the outrage when the thing that you want to happen doesn’t happen? #ThankGodItsAllOver says one great, but hasn’t it only just begun? Green, Bancroft, Harris, Renshaw, Smith, Schappell Corby? We investigate all possibilities and then annoy you deliberately because we are owned by the government and they tell us what to say. Join The Navy.

Speaking of conspiracy theories, South Africa lose to India in the shortest Test match of all time. Rohit says people need to shut their mouths when coming to India and Sunny fires up the populous by stoking some colonial flames ahead of the England Test series. No one’s happy. Everyone’s annoyed. Nothing is good.

20 year old Phoebe Litchfield has had a storming series in India as Australia claim the ODI series 3-0 and Ellyse Perry gets a message from the greats to celebrate her 300th. That’s before we get into more pitch chat in the BBL as we head into the business end of school holidays. So chuck a bucket on your head, mentally prepare yourself for your first week back at work and start remembering what day it is because 2024 looks like more of the same.
