We are back. Well, some of us. Stu MacGill, Jack Sharp, and former Australian Lacrosse player, DJ and Umpire - Josh Beagley. Shane Lee has omitted himself with illness.

Sharpie chats about beating England, Stuey talks about his Welsh heritage and his love for beating the 'colonials masters', and Josh chimes in with ... you'll have to listen.

In 2000 Neil Harvey was selected in the Australian Test team of the Century. 79 tests, 6,149 runs at 48.41 including 21 centuries made Harvey a worthy selection to bat at number 5 behind Bradman at 3 and Greg Chappell at 4.

Harvey played his first Test in January 1948 against India in Adelaide at the age of 19 and you wouldn’t believe what he went and bought when he found out he was about to make his Test debut…. a cricket bat and it was the first he’d own.

On a ‘Just Havin a Crack’ podcasts shared with Blakey and I how he played first grade district cricket in Melbourne and Shield cricket for Victoria using a bat that came from the team kit.

Imagine that, you’ve been picked to play Test cricket, to wear the baggy green, the dreams of many and you’ve done so using a cricket bat shared by all your other team mates.

Cricket correspondent for The Sunday Times, Simon Wilde, joins the podcast to discuss the life and career of the so-called 'Father of Indian Cricket' – K.S. Ranjitsinhji. Born in India in 1872, 'Ranji' – as he was universally known – arrived in England in 1888 to further his education but took the cricket world by storm with his unorthodox but highly effective batting style. At the height of his success, he was as famous as W.G. Grace. But despite his 'magical' ability in the eyes of the British, he was plagued by many off-field issues throughout his cricket career, including financial complications and fighting for his right to become the princely ruler of a state in India.

Michelle Goszko etched her name in the annals of Australian cricket history with an awe-inspiring double century in June 2001. While the cricketing world often recalls Jason Gillespie’s farewell double ton, it is essential to recognise Goszko’s remarkable feat.

Goszko’s incredible innings unfolded over an arduous 395 minutes at the crease against England at Shenley, leaving an indelible mark on the sport. Recently, she graciously shared her reflections on this achievement during an interview on the Cricket Library Podcast.

Warwick Armstrong - Part 1 with Gideon Haigh

Leading cricket writer Gideon Haigh joins the podcast. When it comes to giants of Australian cricket, there are few who stand larger than Warwick Armstrong. Described as the ‘WG Grace of the Antipodes’, he was an all-round phenomenon, who’s stature in cricket - both physically and figuratively - has rarely been surpassed. Emerging in the first years of the 20th century, he defied many of the game’s oldest laws and customs, played cricket to win regardless of its spirit, and stood firm against an emerging dictatorial cricket Establishment. When he retired after leading the all-conquering 1921 Australians in England, he was universally praised as a ‘champion of the game’. But it’s his early years as a lanky, defiant allrounder in the Golden Age of Cricket which concerns this podcast.

C.B. Fry - Part 1 with Iain Wilton

There are few cricketers from the Golden Age who remain such an enigma as C. B. Fry. Captain of the England cricket team, footballer, world-record long jump holder, classicist, politician, naval captain, novelist, journalist, academic - there was no end to his talent. He even came close to becoming the King of Albania. English commentator John Arlott described him as 'probably the most variously gifted Englishman of any age.' On more than one occasion during his playing career, he was the undisputed best batsman in the world; yet he never toured Australia as a player, had questionable ties to some senior figures in Nazi Germany, and was troubled throughout his life by mental health issues, probably ignited by a less than ideal domestic setting. In Part 1, Tom is joined by biographer Iain Wilton, and they discuss Fry’s early life, his writing and batting style, and his relationship with his wife, Beatrice.
