The Kiwi's put on a genuine box-office performance against England at the Oval that has Matthew Hayden and Greg Blewett seriously worried about what's heading our way this summer. Four Tests against a Kiwi side with real bowling depth shapes up as one of the toughest series in years.

The Aussies complete a clean sweep of their own T20 series, but the boys aren't convinced. There's a real depth problem brewing ahead of a brutal stretch of cricket. Cooper Connolly continues to impress, and the debate rages over who opens alongside Travis Head in Test cricket.

Ben Stokes reinstated as England captain after breaking curfew sends the boys down memory lane to the worst curfew enforcement in Australian domestic cricket history.

Plus, Haydos new gig as owner-coach of an associate nation T20 franchise with no home ground, his European wine tour itinerary, and Blewy's three-legged dog drama back home in Adelaide.

The boys are back after a break

Hayden's Gujarat Titans made the IPL final, then Virat Kohli happened. He breaks down the campaign, the fruit bat lifestyle, and why 155 was never enough against the best white ball batter alive.

Blewett is back from seven weeks dry in Pakistan with a big call: Matt Renshaw is a lock for Australia's white ball future.

Plus a warning- Bangladesh's 21-year-old 150kph quick Nahid Rana is heading to our shores and nobody's talking about him yet.

And Cricket Victoria wants to dissolve the Renegades and Stars and sell a single franchise without telling Cricket Australia, the states, or the players' association. Crisis meetings everywhere.

Hayden explains why BBL privatisation is inevitable and JB wants to know whether Indian franchise owners will eventually decide when Australia gets a Boxing Day Test.

It's good to be back!

Pat Cummins is staying in the IPL while Australia tours Pakistan and JB wants answers. The boys unpack what that means for a young, inexperienced squad heading into 45-degree heat without their best players, and why Steve Smith's retirement leaves a leadership void no one can fill. Haydos is live from Ahmedabad with the inside mail on Gujarat Titans, Rashid Khan's return to form, and why the IPL final venue has been stripped from RCB.

Plus: is Cricket Australia actually broke, should the BBL be privatised, and what the hell happened to all that Foxtel and Channel 7 money?
