The West Indies go 1-0 up in the series thanks mostly to Stuart Broad not being picked and Jason Holder now usurping Faf du Plessis as the greatest rig in world cricket. How do you get on the front dog to the great man!? We're talking England going all-in on the pace-train, Ollie Pope looking good at all times (and costs), Shannon Gabriel castling blokes for fun and how everything is a little bit 'private-school'.



Monty Panesar makes his debut on the show and we get into all sorts of Oliver Twist, apple watches at mid-off, smoke-bombing spinners in Brighton, Greg Matthews, being abused in grade cricket and leg pressing his couch.



Jason Gillespie is on the show to talk about back sweat, Jofra and everything yet to come, how to make it swing and BLM.



#AskTGC gets into dealing with sad news, Army vs Navy vs Air Force and how to get a girl to like you.
