When they sacked half the Australian team

Season 3, Ep 2: After the Hobart debacle and the Australia's Got Talent round of the Sheffield Shield, a new-look Australian team takes the field in Adelaide. Faf du Plessis plays smarter, not harder, to set an all-time Test record, Usman Khawaja demonstrates that him opening the batting might just be a great idea, Adam suffers from a case of delirium, we talk about "hardness" and Handscomb subverting cliches of masculinity, and The Quiney Nine is joined by the Renshaw Ten.
