Story Time 106 – Bosie and Big Jack
It's Story Time, our weekly walk through cricket history via your listener quiz challenges. We never mess with the order these numbers land in our in-tray: what comes up, comes up. So it must've been meant to be that in the same episode we'd deal with two spinners who changed the craft of slow bowling forever, Bernard Bosanquet and Jack Iverson. With Daniel Norcross joining Adam, there's time for a odd tale when Surrey were done over by the powers that be as they pressed for victory over their old rivals Middlesex at HQ. And if you ever wanted to learn about Geoff Humpage, well, this is your podcast. We also head back to the 19th century (a couple of times) before finishing with some love for Virat.
