Welcome to our podcast series, ‘Caught Down The Legside’. Each month, Freddie, Tremers, Jerry, Smithy and Ian ‘Gunner’ Gould discuss all things cricket. Honest. Open. Unbiased.
In this month's episode of 'Caught the Down the Legside', Freddie, Tremers, Jerry, Smithy and Gunner pay some emotional tributes to the late Graham Thorpe, someone who touched our lives in so many ways. As this is our first podcast in a few months, we also look back at Smithy's trip out to the US for the T20 World Cup and have quite a discussion on the future of cricket in the United States. We discuss Matthew Mott and his potential replacement, and we cover the summer so far, including.... the West Indies series, some of our emerging new talent, and of course the men's and women's Hundred.
