Season 9, Ep 19: Australia's tour to South Africa is off, just as England's Tests in India are about to begin. With three weeks to go, CA has chalked up another cancellation. Reasonable precaution, foreseeable disaster? Geoff and Adam don't agree on everything. For England's big task ahead, we chat with Vithushan Ehantharajah about what to watch for and what it might mean in viral Britain. Also this week: Pakistan's Karachi win over South Africa, new sources of heat on Justin Langer, the Windies gear up for Tests in Bangladesh, Aghanistan whitewashes Ireland, Australia's Hall of Fame gets some new entrants, and we kick off another Final Word campaign, this time around Charlie Bannerman.
