All hail King Jofra! Welcome to the summer of cricket – The Spin podcast

With the drama of the World Cup quickly upon us, the team are hoping England’s summer will have a happier ending than Game of Thrones. Will it be all hail (King) Jofra Archer?

Smith is one of the few people in the country who understand how The Hundred – English cricket’s new one-day competition – will work. She’s played in three pilot games. We also reflect on Kevin Pietersen’s new career as full time rhino-saviour and ask if it’s the weirdest life-after-cricket career choice.
