  • Samson Sees India Through To Semis! T20 World Cup
    Mar 1 2026
    In this episode, we break down a night of pure theatre at Eden Gardens as Sanju Samson played a knock for the ages to send India into the T20 World Cup 2026 semi-finals. Chasing a daunting 196 in what was effectively a virtual quarter-final against the West Indies on 1 March, Samson silenced the critics with a breathtaking 97 off just 50 balls*. We dive deep into the tactical mastery of Samson’s innings, which featured 12 fours and 4 sixes, guiding India to a 5-wicket victory with 4 balls to spare. We also recap a frantic final 72 hours of Super 8 action that decided the final four. From South Africa’s clinical 5-wicket win over Zimbabwe to secure the top spot in Group 1, to Pakistan’s heartbreaking exit despite a thrilling 5-run victory over Sri Lanka on 28 February—where Sahibzada Farhan’s heroic century (100 off 60) wasn't enough to overcome New Zealand’s superior net run rate.

  • India Are Alive and England Are Through - T20 World Cup
    Feb 27 2026
    In this episode of The Cricket Podcast, we dive into the high-stakes drama of the T20 World Cup 2026 Super 8s, where the semi-final picture is finally becoming clear. England have become the first team to officially qualify for the knockouts, completing a remarkable turnaround after a shaky start to the tournament. We break down Harry Brook’s sensational match-winning century against Pakistan that punched their ticket to the semi-finals. With their place secured, we ask: is this the most balanced England T20 side we’ve seen in years? Meanwhile, India have kept their World Cup dreams alive with a dominant 72-run victory over Zimbabwe in Chennai. After a bruising loss to South Africa, the Men in Blue found their spark through an Abhishek Sharma masterclass and a clinical bowling performance. We look ahead to Sunday’s "virtual quarter-final" at Eden Gardens, where India must defeat the West Indies to join the Proteas in the last four. Learn more about your ad choices.

    Feb 23 2026
    In this episode of The Cricket Podcast we break down the massive T20 World Cup 2026 Super 8 upsets that have blown Group 1 wide open. First, we analyse how South Africa ended India’s 12-match winning streak in a dominant 76-run victory in Ahmedabad. Was it David Miller’s explosive 63 or a rare failure from the Indian top order? We dive deep into the India vs South Africa highlights to see if the Proteas have finally found the formula to win big ICC trophies. Next, we ask the burning question: Are England back? After a clinical 51-run win over Sri Lanka in Pallekele, Harry Brook’s side looks like a serious contender again. We review Will Jacks’ game-changing bowling performance and discuss whether England's aggressive style will hold up against Pakistan’s spinners in the next round. Plus, we cover the fallout of the Pakistan vs New Zealand rain-out and what the current T20 World Cup points table means for semi-final qualification scenarios. Can India recover their Net Run Rate, or is a shock exit on the cards? Want to create live streams like this?
