Stick to Cricket returns as Michael Vaughan, Phil Tufnell, Sir Alastair Cook and David “Bumble” Lloyd are joined by special guest Monty Panesar — brought to you by Betfair.
The conversation starts with life after cricket, as Monty reveals he’s still as competitive as ever and regularly playing sport.
Monty reflects on how he first got into cricket and the journey that eventually led him to representing England on the biggest stage. While he looks back fondly on his career, he also opens up about the struggles he faced along the way and some of the regrets he still carries.
The panel also revisit Shane Warne’s famous comments about Monty, a topic that’s followed him throughout his career, and hear his honest thoughts on the criticism.
There are plenty of great memories too, including England’s iconic 2009 Ashes victory, his partnership with Jimmy Anderson, and the toughest batter he ever bowled against.
The discussion also turns to the Steve Smith situation 🍿
And of course, we had to talk spin bowling. Is spin dying in cricket? Who are England’s key spin options moving forward? And what does the future look like for spinners in the modern game?
