Ep 68: UNESCO declares KL Rahul best IPL player

IPL 2023 - a 2 monthlong throwback to the 2015 World Cup, where Dhoni, Rahane, Mohit, Amit, Shami, Ishant et al are in the thick of things - expertly reviewed by a panel barely watching the tournament, only on your favourite cricket podcast. Join the gang as they also celebrate Sachin's 50th in style, but only after paying respects to Tony Sebastian - godfather of this podcast - on his birthday, which even Sachin marked with due respect. Also tune in for some Dickie Bird nostalgia, Australia's WTC selection squad analysis, and an IPL quiz that stumps everyone including the quiz master.
