Cricket's bad light problem and is change imminent in the England Test team?

Yas Rana, Phil Walker and Ben Gardner reflect on another round of County Championship action, including a statement knock from Durham's Ben McKinney. There's chat around Zak Crawley's England place, gripes with the points system and bad light, Phil's charter for 2026 and more. Mark Butcher also joins the show to chat with Yas about the pros and cons for tall batters and why genuine quicks struggle in the County Championship. 0:00 Remitly / 0:50 Intro / 2:21 Ben McKinney / 11:56 Zak Crawley / 17:45 Points system / 19:25 Cricket's bad light problem / 32:30 Phil's charter for 2026 / 35:15 Other County Championship results / 43:19 Mark Butcher / 59:29 Wisden Cricket Monthly / 1:00:56 IPL / 1:06:53 Other cricket / 1:11:18 Outro 💸 REMITLY Download the Remitly app today and enjoy a special offer on your first transfer: https://bit.ly/WisdenRemitly2025 📔 WISDEN CRICKET MONTHLY OFFERS PRINT: Use the code WCMFREE25 to subscribe to the magazine on a monthly, auto-renew basis and get your first magazine for free!
