The Cricket Collective - Alex Hales' International Retirement & Is There A Crisis in South African Cricket?!

Neil Manthorp is joined by the former England bowler Steve Harmison to discuss the week's biggest stories. They get reaction to Alex Hales' international retirement, and debate when is the right time to call it a day as a professional. The Durham batter David Bedingham joins us to reflect on his 52-ball century in the One Day Cup, and also discuss his Test ambitions for South Africa. The former Proteas spinner Paul Harris discusses how the SA20 retentions will impact South Africa's two-Test series in New Zealand early next year, and whether the longest format in South Africa is in crisis. They also look at how Associate Nations will improve the One Day Cup, and reflect the other big stories in the game this week. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
