The super-chic European cricket revolution

Season 11, Ep 18: Haven't you always wanted to see cricket on the stylish boulevards of gay Paris? Cricket near the Spanish beaches of Malaga? Cricket in the Norwegian snow or Belgian rain? It's happening now, and in large part due to the work of Dan Weston and his comrades at the European Cricket Network, with its continental club championship and now a championship of national teams. Pavel Florin was the breakout star first time around, and now the second edition is underway. Dan joins us live from a match in Spain to tell the tale. Also this week, Amelia Kerr has been training with Barry Bonds to dust up India, Matt Henry becomes South Africa's daddy, and Sri Lanka get a win back over Australia - but what to make of Aaron Finch?
