Baird out, Cowan in?

Tuesday, September 29, 2026 • Duration 46:36

Sorry what, are we losing one of our hosts to the Cricket Australia board? With Mike Baird stepping down after no longer having the support of Cricket NSW, Corbin chats to the guy who might replace him, Ed Cowan. We talk through the timeline, "the moment" of change for Baird, why "this is not an ideal situation" and the hope that this is a turning point.

Most importantly for the future of cricket in Australia, what does this mean for BBL privatisation and how crucial might the next month be before Baird officially departs?

There's also actual cricket happening in South Africa and at home so the boys eventually get to the on field action.

Has Marnus Labuschagne 'tinkered' his way out of the Test side?

Monday, August 24, 2026 • Duration 45:45

After another lean series from Marnus Labuschagne, Ed Cowan is wondering whether he has 'boiled the frog slowly' by continuing to tinker with his batting set-up while still not making runs. Corbin and Ed discuss whether he should be on the plane to South Africa in October and if he's not, who is? They each put forward their XI for the first Test of that series.

Another two day Test match has people talking about the pitch but is it the deck that needs to improve or those playing on it? Plus both Corbin and Ed both have incredible stories about sitting next to Ricky Ponting on a plane.
