TFW Daily - Why no Aussie XI? - South Africa Australia, 1st Test, Durban
South Africa Australia Daily, 1st Test, Durban Day 1: The talking is almost over. 1 vs 2 in world cricket: a series with narrative everywhere you look. South Africa will play its first home Test since last year’s glorious WTC final, with a lineup very similar to June 2025. One superstar comes in for another: Anrich Nortje replaces the injured Kagiso Rabada, and the experienced spinner Simon Harmer joins Ke$hav Maharaj on a pitch expected to turn. Australia return to the country of their biggest fiasco, still unsure of their starting XI. We won’t know until the toss who’ll be replacing all-rounder Cameron Green. Cooper Connolly is the most likely, but will Nic Maddinson storm in late? Bharat Sundaresan joins Adam Colins in Kingsmead in Durban. Could you support the show?

Australia's return to South Africa launches in 3, 2, 1...
Season 21, Episode 1: Another week, a new season, as the southern hemisphere summer swings into action. All things South Africa lead the show, with both that team and Australia making squad changes, some more controversial than others. The one-day World Cup schedule for 2027 is out a year ahead of time, with some surprises and some very unsurprising elements. Mohammed Rizwan is still being hassled by Pakistani cops, Sophie Molineux is still on the injury list, and there's plenty of weirdness from the franchise world. Could you support the show?

Story Time 290 – When Gavaskar did what Bradman couldn't
It’s Story Time, our weekly walk through cricket history. This week, one question: was there any game played in the 19th century that wasn't at Lord's? A self-styled pioneer with a pseudonym certainly got his fill of pavilion lunches. Also, do South Australians play for South Australia? We test facts against myth, as well as an unlikely trip to Los Angeles, and a clean sweep even rarer than we imagined.

It's decapitation week at Cricket Australia
Season 20, Episode 32: We called it: CA chair Mike Baird has been knocked off by New South Wales, and the cricket privatisation war could now turn in any directions Can we short-circuit the conflict by crowdfunding the Renegades, and signing Will Bosisto into the bargain? Over in South Africa, the Aussies are floundering in the pyjamas, Kagiso Rabada has been in the hyperbaric chamber with Kouta, and Pat Cummins may not be fit. Plenty of moving parts there, as Kohli powers on in one-day cricket, and Warwickshire are County Champs. Sign the Will Bosiito petition c.org/bYBLXJ6dpH Could you support the show?

TFW Daily - Cam Green troubles - South Africa Australia, 2nd ODI
South Africa Australia Daily, 2nd ODI, Johannesburg: Australia were bullish at the Bullring, talking about levelling the series. South Africa's batters levelled the Australians. The chase was hefty, but the chasing was just as Bison-sized. So could the visitors correct their course this time around, and make use of another massive opening stand? Not when Australia's middle order is busted. Call it Cam Green syndrome. Could you support the show? You can send us a Nerd Pledge or become a member at patreon.com/thefinalword.

TFW Daily - Big moment, Big Marco - South Africa Australia, 1st ODI
South Africa Australia Daily, 1st ODI, Durban: In the lead-up to the Test series, this one-day series has extra significance. Starc was here, so was Hazlewood, with Cummins in the wings. And in true one-day style, this first game twisted, turned, drifted, and dipped. Matthew Breetzke and Big Marco Jansen had a time, then Mitchell Marsh went into overdrive. The result would rely on how to deal with spin. Hello, Ke$hav Maharaj. Could you support the show? You can send us a Nerd Pledge or become a member at patreon.com/thefinalword.
