Sri Lanka Australia Daily, 2nd Test, Galle Day 4: It's taken 14 years for Australia to win a series in Sri Lanka and they've done so here in style, completing the sweep by nine wickets. The brief day included an important little moment for Marnus Labuschagne, there with red ink at the end. Adam and Bharat return to the roof for one final ep as we inch closer to 800 patreons!

Sri Lanka Australia Daily, 2nd Test, Galle Day 3: From a shattered thumb that threatened his tour to the series' leading wicket-taker, Matt Kuhnemann has been outstanding from the first over he bowled in Galle. His four wickets, plus Nathan Lyon's three and Beau Webster's cameo, have put Australia into a perfect position to wrap this up in straight sets. But they did have to overcome local resistance with both ball then bat. Join Adam and Bharat, back on the roof.

Sri Lanka Australia Daily, 2nd Test, Galle Day 2: The scorecard won't suggest it, but the gamer was in balance just after lunch with Sri Lanka's spinners getting into groove. But then Carey, elevated to five, joined Steve Smith in the middle and they never left. Two superlative tons defined the day, putting Australia into another commanding position. Adam has Bharat with him on the roof, where they also find time to discuss a difficult subject - poor old Marnus.

Sri Lanka Australia Daily, 2nd Test, Galle Day 1: When you need a job done in this part of the world, you know who to call: Mitch Starc and Nathan Lyon. The Australian veterans were both outstanding on a day where Sri Lanka also offered resistance at times on a pitch that is likely to send this Test into fast forward in the next day or two. Adam has Bharat with him and they're back on the roof with the story of the day to faithfully relay to you.

Sri Lanka Australia Daily, 2nd Test, Galle Day 0: Is Cooper Connolly going to make it four debuts in four Tests for Australia's men? We've compiled enough circumstantial evidence to suggest so. Also, one of our all-time favourites in Final Word history, Franky D Karunaratne, has decided to make this 100th Test this week his final appearance for Sri Lanka. It's Adam and Bharat on the field of play ahead of a second week on the roof looking out to the Fort.

Season 17, Ep 22: In news that will surprise no one, England and India don't like the World Test Championship structure because they haven't made the final.

Also this week, our view on the English wash-up from the WAshes, with renewal badly needed, Kohli plays the Ranji, Kurtis Patterson keeps making tons, new funding for the Afghan women's team, and a look at who's missing from the Australian cricket Hall of Fame.

Sri Lanka Australia Daily, 1st Test, Galle Day 4: 5/9, 7/15, 15 wickets in two sessions. This all combined to Australia recording their fourth biggest win in Test history, which happened to be Sri Lanka's greatest shellacking. Adam and Bharat are at Galle to detail how it all happened and why Matt Kuhnemann's nine-wicket match has more wider significance than just this result.

Women's Ashes Daily, Only Test, MCG Day 3: Alana King's Ashes. That is the only conclusion, after a final day of fizzing leg breaks and endless pressure, bowling from the Shane Warne Stand end on her way to the honours board. Sophie Ecclestone also had her moment, toiling hard in an outmatched team. It ended with intrigue and a dose of hilarity in front of an even-more-world-record crowd, and now the mighty MCG is home again only to the seagulls.

Sri Lanka Australia Daily, 1st Test, Galle Day 3: Jason Holder had it right all those years ago - Dhananjaaaaaaya, what are you doing? His was one of two wickets to fall on a day that was more about the elaborate covers pattern than anything else, but we enjoyed what we saw.

Women's Ashes Daily, Only Test, MCG Day 2: More drops than Ibiza on the second day of the Test, as England somehow forgot which parts were hands and which parts were feet. In the end, the collarbone was the most secure catching receptacle on the day. In the meantime, Annabel Sutherland forged on her reputation as Perry Mach II, on a very strange day while the mighty MCG broke the record for a women's Test crowd.

Sri Lanka Australia Daily, 1st Test, Galle Day 2: Who would've thought Usman Khawaja's first Test double century, now the oldest Australian to get one, would be the day's secondary headline? Thank Josh Inglis for that, who became the 21st Australian man to salute a Test ton at the first time of asking. Adam and Bharat enjoyed that a lot and they're here to tell you more.

Women's Ashes Daily, Only Test, MCG Day 1: The first women's Test at the MCG since 1949 drew a lot more people than they had in 1949, we're betting, as Izzy Westbury joins Geoff at the ground. With Australia bowling first, their XI was a curiosity, but it didn't matter as Alana King kept doing what she does, revving the ball like a motorbike and perplexing England's batters. All that after Afghanistan's women played their first match earlier that morning, with our TFW crew also in attendance at the Junction Oval.

Sri Lanka Australia Daily, 1st Test, Galle Day 1: With a simple nudge to mid-on, Steve Smith moved to another special level, completing his mission to 10,000 Test runs. But he was far from done, going on to post three figures for the 35th time, as Usman Khawaja made a ton of his own for the first time since June 2023. Adam and Bharat are two tired boys on the roof at Galle.

Sri Lanka Australia Daily, 1st Test, Galle preview: Another day, another series. Plenty of conjecture around the Australian squad about how the team will be constructed in Galle, so why not go to two journalists who always have their fingers on the pulse, Bharat Sundaresan and Andrew Fidel Fernando.

Season 17, Ep 21: Izzy Westbury joins for a weekly show, and there's a genuine question on the table. Tom Curran is the latest Englishman to go perambulating for no particular reason while the ball was live, then to think he was entitled to be spared the consequences. Also, the run-up to the Women's Ashes Test and the Australian men's Sri Lanka Test, a belting win for West Indies in Pakistan, some peculiar scorecards from Malayia for the women's under-19s tournament, Rocky Flintoff hits some dingers, and Sophie Devine hits the brakes.

Women's Ashes Daily, 3rd T20, Adelaide: Another match, another stop on the procession. Beth Mooney has been in brilliant touch all series, and outscored England on her own in a virtuoso performance. Meanwhile, a vintage set of fielding highlights decorated the other half of the innings. Isabelle Westbury is in no mood to hold back, joining Geoff from Adelaide.

Women's Ashes Daily, 2nd T20, Canberra: We finally got a close one, a real genuine close one, with Danni Wyatt-Hodge and Heather Knight turning it on in pursuit of Australia's big score that was built by Beth Mooney, Tahlia McGrath, and crowd favourite Grace Harris. But the way this ended has to be seen (or heard about) to be believed. Absurd scenes at Manuka. Isabelle Westbury joins Geoff Lemon.

Women's Ashes Daily, 1st T20, Sydney: England talked up their chances in the 20-over segment of the tour, and Australia had a couple of big omissions with injury, so it was time for new players to do their thing. Phoebe Litchfield certainly did hers, Alana King came back for her first match in the format in nearly two years, and Sophia Dunkley returned to England colours with a blazing bat. A run-fest at the SCG. Isabelle Westbury joins Geoff Lemon.
