End-of-cycle selection challenges

Happy 2026! Nas and Ath have moved to Sydney to chat to you from the famous SCG - one of the few grounds in Australia where both have fond memories!

They look ahead to the fifth and final Ashes Test and are joined by England batter, Jacob Bethell, who looks back at the win in Melbourne, discusses the importance of this Test to the visitors and explains how he balances all his different formats of cricket.

We’ll have pods for you every day of play during the Ashes, so if you don’t already, give this show a follow so you don’t miss a moment.
