Summer truly begins this week with the Adelaide Test commencing on Thursday, which also means we’re close to smoke, floods, bushfires and runs that make us feel safe and good.

We’re talking about three different blokes with concussion, injuries, batting orders, granddad losing his shit at Australia A and are India actually good?

Ian Chappell, a man who never lost a series as Captain of Australia, is on the show to talk about tubbing with Ashely Mallett, meeting the Queen, Pucoksvki concussions and Joe Burns hundreds.
