Season 12, Ep 16: It was melting outside, so we retreated inside to the air-conditioning at The Oval to record this week's episode. This week: Matt Roller from Cricinfo joins the show. The Big Bash is in real trouble with IPL teams buying out the competing South African league, while South Africans give up on the ODI World Cup. There was real Final Word flavour to the bizarre end of England's domestic T20 final. The Future Tours schedule gets leaked, Ben Stokes retires from ODIs, South Africa's women get steamrolled by a renewed England, Ireland fall just short against New Zealand, and Pakistan set up a Test epic in Sri Lanka.
