Neil Manthorp is joined by the former England fast bowler Steve Harmison for another bumper show. The South Africa Head Coach Shukri Conrad joins the show to look ahead to a huge Test summer for the Proteas, starting with a three-match series against Australia, and ending with three Tests against England, both of which are live and exclusive on talkSPORT 2 and the talkSPORT Cricket YouTube Channel. He discusses a bumper summer for the Proteas, how it feels playing 8 Tests in quick succession after not playing any for over a year, and discusses whether the World Test Championship victory has saved Test Cricket in South Africa.
They are also joined on the show by the former West Indies National Selector Roland Butcher to discuss an uncertain future for the West Indies, who have announced more cuts, with players taking 25% pay cuts. He reflects on what the future holds for the region & how the West Indies can become a force in World Cricket again. Plus, they dissect South Africa's Test squad named for the first Test against Australia, and reflect on Warwickshire winning the 2026 County Championship!
Hear live and exclusive ball-by-ball commentary of South Africa's upcoming Test series against both Australia and England on talkSPORT 2 and the talkSPORT Cricket YouTube Channel.
