We had our actions tested at The University of Western Australia!

Season 17, Episode 13: Okay, we didn't get the dots on, but we did record at Perth's gorgeous campus where for two decades bowlers with suspect actions visited from everywhere. Aaron Chin, a biomechanist who worked on the project, tells us all about it. Earlier, it is everything-other-than-the-BGT on our agenda, including a trip over to Christchurch with Cam Ponsonby. There's also a light-touch IPL auction chat, comparisons between Henry Hunt and Harold Holt, and the PCB (rightly) cashing in. Then a red-ball wrap for men and a white-ball lap for women.
