Was THAT The WORST Lord's Pitch Ever? + 2nd Test Preview & Why No Test In Auckland? | BYC Podcast

Was that the worst Test pitch of all time at Lord's? Dylan Cleaver and Paul Ford join ACC Head G Lane to rake over the coals of the 1st Test, debate modern grassology, and ask what on earth went wrong on cricket's most famous strip. Then a look ahead to the 2nd Test at The Oval (and a quick word on what some of the English got up to post-win), the news that there's no Test in Auckland during the upcoming home summer, a preview of the White Ferns at the T20 World Cup, and the significant news that Richard Boock is leaving NZ Cricket. Plus: a far less grim edition of Paul Ford's Cricket Violence Corner. 🕐 TIMESTAMPS 00:00 — The worst Test pitch of all time? + modern grassology debate 18:20 — 2nd Test at The Oval preview + what the English got up to post-win 27:00 — Why no Test in Auckland this home summer? 30:25 — White Ferns T20 World Cup preview 32:05 — Richard Boock leaves NZ Cricket 35:20 — Paul Ford's Cricket Violence Corner (less grim this time) 🎙️ The BYC Podcast — New Zealand's original cricket podcast.
