Story Time 285 – Bring back the Matador BBQ Cup
It’s Story Time, our weekly walk through cricket history. This week, Geoff and Adam ask if batting on all five days of a Test really is the feat we build it up to be? We look at Mali’s brief and unusual international frolic before reflecting on the second glory period of Australian one-day cricket - the mighty Matador Cup.
