35. India's T20 World Cup Demolition, The Great Dudes XI, and Matty Hayden's Big IPL News

Wed, 11 Mar 2026 23:32:19 GMT

India are champions and the boys break down how they absolutely dismantled New Zealand in the final, why Sanju Samson was the tournament's standout, and whether a T20 team will actually crack 300 runs in the next IPL.

They pay tribute to the legendary Alyssa Healy on her retirement, with some brilliant insights (and a cracking story about her mic'd-up moment at the stumps).

Then it's the segment you didn't know you needed: the Great Dudes XI - not the best players, but the ones you'd most want in your corner. Keith Miller flying bomber missions before scoring centuries, Freddie Flintoff cracking up mid-stare-down, Viv Richards with the chewy and no helmet, Jeffrey Robert Thompson dropping F-bombs inside other F-bombs... it's an absolute ripper of a team.

Plus some big news from Matty Hayden, who's heading to the IPL in a new role. Blewie lost his son's cricket bag out the back of a ute, and the boys get fired up about why on earth the MCG Centenary Test is being played as a day-night pink ball game.

They revisit the 1972 Ashes, his Lord’s hundred, facing the West Indies fast-bowling quartet, and why Andy Roberts was the most complete of them all.

We dive into modern batting, the power game, the front leg clearing, the sweet-spot era, and whether technique has been sacrificed for spectacle.

Plus classic Rod Marsh stories and a reminder of what elite competitiveness really looks like.

One for the diehards, from a man you rarely hear at this length.

Australia’s T20 World Cup campaign is over.

Matthew Hayden, Greg Blewett and James Brayshaw break down why Australia failed at the T20 World Cup, from selection decisions and squad balance to whether the strategy was built around making it to India rather than surviving the Sri Lankan conditions that mattered first.

Plus the boys talk women’s cricket and India’s rise, a 97-ball duck, one of the great rearguard innings and stories of cricket royalty.

Viv Richards’ swagger, Dennis Lillee vs Viv, and why that West Indies generation still defines aura and intimidation in the game.

31. SCG Secrets, Best Aussie Test Venues, and Cricket Myths That Are Frog Sh*t

Fri, 30 Jan 2026 03:18:00 GMT

Australia’s T20 loss to Pakistan gets the “warm-up game” treatment but there are still real watch-points: Cooper Connolly’s bowling keeps impressing, his batting… not so much, and the boys talk squad balance as the World Cup edges closer. Plus a big tick for WA quick Marley Beardman, with plenty of hype (and a few gears still to come).

Then it’s back to the family Q&A. Favourite Australian Test grounds, the best state cricketers who never got the Baggy Green, and a quality spray on cricket myths that refuse to die.

There’s also a proper DRS deep-dive: the “benefit of doubt” tradition, inconsistent tech across countries, and why some reviewed balls seem to live in a parallel universe. Finish it off with helmets changing technique, and two all-time “worst bowler to get you out” stories.

30. Facing Shoaib Akhtar at 150kph, Cricket Gear, and Change-Room Filth

Sat, 24 Jan 2026 02:03:41 GMT

This episode of All Over Bar the Cricket is driven by your questions and nothing is off limits.

James Brayshaw, Greg Blewitt and Matthew Hayden take questions from fans and turn them on each other, covering everything from what it really feels like to face 150–160kph fast bowling, to the most confronting change-room hygiene stories of their careers.

Hayden and Blewitt break down facing Shoaib Akhtar at full speed, why the jump from 140 to 150 isn’t incremental and what happens when technique disappears and survival takes over.

The boys also lift the lid on elite cricket equipment: how international players actually select bats, gloves and protective gear, why shop bats aren’t the same as pro bats, and the small custom details that make a big difference at the top level.

Along the way, they tackle Duckworth-Lewis, Big Bash finals, embarrassing dismissals, run-outs that still sting, and favourite grounds to play around Australia.

Listener-led, loose, and brutally honest this is one of the most revealing episodes we’ve done.

24. Ashes Special: Best England Ashes XI

Tue, 23 Dec 2025 22:33:31 GMT

From Cook’s durability to Botham’s myth. From Anderson’s longevity to Flintoff’s force. From Boycott to Broad.

Sun, 14 Dec 2025 09:01:12 GMT

“Warne would always put his hand out to the runners and say, ‘Hi, I’m Shane Warne.’ That tells you a lot. He never assumed anyone knew who he was.— Michael Atherton

Whether Stokes and McCullum need to rein things in, or double down
Jofra Archer’s pace, consistency and the criticism from Anderson, Broad and the Aussies
Facing Glenn McGrath 19 times and knowing he “had my number”
His affection for Shane Warne the broadcaster and bloke and the shock of his passing
How he sees Test cricket’s future in an IPL-dominated world

7. Mentoring Konstas, Nuding Up & Middle Order Mayhem

Fri, 12 Sep 2025 02:03:51 GMT

This week we get the skinny on Matthew Hayden mentoring Sam Konstas, he and Greg Blewett pick their greatest English Ashes middle order, and a blow up over Joe Root leads to Haydos to make a bit that might make the MCC members a little nervous...

Plus - why can't tail enders run?

“When you need to run well between the wickets, you need just a little bit of common sense. And you’ve got to have a little bit of a feel for the game as well.... And just about all fast bowlers don’t." - Greg Blewett

4. Bob Simpson, Fading ODIs & England stuck in '05

Fri, 22 Aug 2025 02:40:21 GMT

"England still talk about Flintoff like he’s the Beatles’ reunion tour." - Greg Blewitt

"If 2005 is still your greatest hit, you’re officially a one-album band.” - JB

ODIs running out of steam, the Poms still can’t quit 2005, and Bob Simpson’s no-nonsense edge lives on — Oakleys and all.

JB, Haydos and Blewie take aim at cricket’s fixation with the past, from rain delays and spin struggles to fading formats and old stories that refuse to die. All with a healthy serve of pisstake, of course.
