Gideon Haigh and Pete Lalor have been writing about cricket, and talking about music, books, movies, television and life, for nearly fifteen years.  Now they do it with a podcast recorder handy, which sometimes they remember to turn on.  Stand by for a podcast full of insights and lacking in organisation.

  • 250 - THE DARK DON'T HIDE IT: South Africa Win By An Innings In Gqeberha

    Pete and Gid peer through the rain and clouds to see South Africa trounce Australia by an innings and 31 runs at St George's Park, with Kagiso Rabada eclipsing Steve Smith, Scott Boland impersonating Horatius on the bridge to no avail, and Pat Cummins equivocal about the future of the batting unit.  To Capetown at one-all: what a prospect.

  • 249 - DAMAGED GOODS: Australia Made to Follow On As SA Dominate Day 4

    Pete and Gid watch a startling Australian capitulation on the fourth day of the Second Test, with speed then spin disposing of thirteen wickets, including Marnus Labuschagne, Beau Webster and Matthew Renshaw twice. What gives with Steve Smith? Can Australia hold out on the last day? Is change coming? Plus shout outs to some of our favourite subscribers, and a twisted outro.

  • 248 - TURNAROUND: Bavuma & Jansen Get South Africa Back On Track

    Pete and Gid watch South Africa turn the tables on Australia at St George's Park with a stunning day of batting led by their captain Temba Bavuma, whose highest Test score was the basis for a huge total, and whose declaration gained his team a late wicket.  But can South Africa roll Australia twice in the remaining two days?  Who would tip anything in this topsy-turvey series dominated by the bowlers, and the bowlers as batters?

  • 247 - STARMAN: Boland on Fire Again as Rain Impacts Day 2

    Pete and Gid pay tribute to the cheapest bowler round - in the nicest possible way - after another staggering bowling performance from Scott Boland at St George’s Park in Gqeberha reduced South Africa to five for 97 on a much-shortened second day. A fine innings from Temba Bavuma has kept the home team in touch; the pitch may not get easier to bat on; the game is afoot.

  • 246 - SHE BRINGS THE RAIN: Boland Shines On a Rainy Day 1

    Pete and Gid hold a press conference to celebrate seventy-four deliveries at St George's Park and several hours of rain, but there's enough time to laud Scott Boland, lament Nathan Lyon, and recall the maestro Barry Richards - revealing an uncanny connection to the Lalor clan.  Plus: does Gqeberha have the slowest groundstaff in the world?  Also: is there more rain on the way?
