"I'm a bit fat sometimes and I love a beer."

Season 15, Episode 23: Mitch Marsh won more hearts this week while winning the Allan Border Medal, while Ash Gardner confirmed her supremacy in the Australian women's team with the Belinda Clark Award. That didn't stop South Africa's women knocking off Australia for the first time in 50-over cricket, after notching their first 20-over win the week before. Marizanne Kapp is currently Superwoman. New Zealand predictably battered South Africa's 5th-tier team in the men's Test, but not without plenty of statistical quirks, Afghanistan battled hard in their Test in Sri Lanka, and there's a new women's domestic structure in England.
