224. Bucket On Your Bonce, with Matt Short & Alex Malcolm

Is this good or is this the end? Boxing Day delight for the Aussies as we bury our head in the sand like an emu that can't walk backwards. How good's the COAT of arms? What does this mean for the SCG? Can we get a new toy to fuck around with? Something new for the eyes would be nice. Alex Malcolm is in studio to give us some actual analytics and analysis of what cricketers and high performers do. That's before we get into glory holes and how to improve the Big Bash. Matt Short joins us from Adelaide before training to tell us about Rashid Khan's sledging. Pakistan and New Zealand are both batting forever in Karachi. The IPL auction also gets a run, because money is all that matters and it's the biggest flex the IPL and BCCI can give. Fair bit of bunce kicking about to be fair. #AskTGC is about Skull and namedrops several other hall of famers.   Budgy has both us and you covered wherever you are the world.
