On this week’s Stumped with Alison Mitchell, Jim Maxwell and Charu Shara, we assess the opening stages of the T20 World Cup, as the competition heads towards the Super 8’s stage. The team discuss the aftermath of the on-off-on India Pakistan game and whether former England captain Michael Atherton’s assessment that the game is now ‘a miserable spectacle’ is a fair comment, plus we discuss the biggest shocks and celebrate the successes of the ‘smaller’ nations competing.
With the Milan-Cortina Winter Olympics in full swing, could cricket join the party? The Tallinn Hippos have defended their ‘cricket on ice trophy’ title in Switzerland’s St Mortiz. We speak with their captain Stuart Hook about playing the game on the most unlikely of surfaces, and the cricket scene in Estonia.
Plus, could the Big Bash be heading to India? The team discuss the possibility of the competition’s opening match heading to the sub-continent.
