What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I love this podcast for the insight provided by Mark Butcher, the Andrews McGlashan and Miller, and George Dobell (my favorite cricket writer). There aren't many cricket podcasts available in the US, so it's great to have access to this one. HOWEVER, I really wish they'd publish the podcasts more regularly.

{I originally wrote this review a year ago. I am now updating it, and removing one star of its rating, because in recent months the sound quality has noticeably deteriorated. It sounds like the panel has exchanged its sound studio for a loo. Still listenable, but annoying.] A rotating cast of English cricket journalists provides good analysis of current events in England cricket, both international and domestic. This podcast is the view from the press box. When listened to in conjunction with The World Cricket Show, which has more of a fan-in-the-stands veiwpoint, an England cricket supporter living in a non-cricket nation will be kept quite well informed of all important developments on the English cricket scene. Good work, gentlemen!
