Australia systematically dismantle the Indian cricket team with a humiliation that most of us have already pretty much forgotten about, but will long live in the memory of our Indian friends. We do what we always do after another historic success: we pick apart the flaws and weaknesses of an Australian team that just bowled Kohli, Pujara et al out for 36.

Who plays in the next test and why; how good are second innings runs; will COVID deny Sydney a non-dead-rubber Test; are India absolutely gone; was their fielding coach at a wedding this week; and will Tim Paine cure COVID?

Dan Christian hits a 15 ball 50 in the BBL, Jaques Kallis joins England in preparation for Sri Lanka, New Zealand are still good at home and Shane Warne’s wearing a hat now.

Michael Bevan is on the show to discuss scoring 1400 runs in a shield season, hitting 4s off the last ball on New Years Day against the West Indies and wearing full kit in the shower after a low score. You can follow Bevo on Instagram at @bevo_michaelbevan for updates on his coaching and mentoring in the coming weeks and months.
