More drama as Cricket Australia exec leaves during spending scandal
Season 20 Episode 13: Cricket Australia are pushing a line about needing more money coming in, but that didn't stop a bunch of money going out, after a technology executive was accused of funnelling contracts to their own company. Meanwhile, the whistleblower who reported the problem was sacked. Things aren't going well at head office. Also this week, Jacob Bethell's broken finger opens up an England Test spot, and the pink ball may get approved for use during red-ball games. And we thank all of you who supported our Lord's Taverners marathon weekend, as we reached £30,000 raised this year and £100,000 in total.

The Final Word with Charlotte Edwards
Season 20 Episode 12: Charlotte Edwards is one of the most respected people in all of cricket. With her career in the game now entering a third decade, she’s now in the job she always wanted since finishing as a superstar player and captain in 2016: coach of the England Women’s Team. Taking over at a low ebb last year, we find a mentor who has found the empathy needed for a role like this, but also one who doesn’t shirk the big decisions posed, especially when it comes to senior players. We find Lotte, as she’s known by all, brimming with enthusiasm not only for how far the women’s game has progressed, and for the opportunities presented by a home T20 World Cup.
