210. The Last Suckle

September is here and that means that your dreams are about to die.... again. The Road Safety World Series is here and we're cooing about Sachin sitting in 1A while Watto's stable base makes us feel like Australia should win this meaningless tournament. Tim David will debut for Australia this week after he gives us some serious ASMR in the nets. Ben Horne is on the show to discuss another rival Indian league popping up to take away international cricket's best players. England are in Pakistan for the first time in 17 years, but what's Alex Hales like as a bloke? Rachel Haynes retires from international cricket after winning it all and then feeling nothing. #AskTGC ponders whether you can be good at something you've never done and a disturbing dream about Pezza in the urinals.
