Lord’s Test Fallout: Stokes & Atkinson Investigated & MCC Apologises Over Pitch
6/8/202641 min
Stuart Broad & Jos Buttler look back on England’s eventful victory over New Zealand in the first Test at Lord’s as news breaks of an investigation into the conduct of England captain Ben Stokes and fast bowler Gus Atkinson following an incident at a nightclub. They discuss the controversial Lord’s surface that yielded 40 wickets in 166 overs and discuss whether drop-in pitches could provide the answer to the problems facing ground staff at the Home of Cricket. They reflect on the return to form of Ollie Robinson and a stylish debut for left-handed opener Emilio Gay. Plus, Vaibhav Sooryavanshi’s India-call-up and a show-stopping launch event for the Women’s T20 World Cup.
