In the wake of a meh World Cup campaign for India, Chops and Srinath are in a post-mortem-esque mood; they bring to you their own version of armchair handwringing and criticism with hopes against hope that things will change for the better as far as Indian men's T20I cricket is concerned. With not much cricket of note during the week gone by, they shift their attention to trading personal stories and anecdotes from their favourite Tests from the delicious Australia in India rivalry. From epic ways to follow cricket as schoolboys to tales of Indian spin greats helping out Aussie spin novices, from the traditional Test centres of Delhi and Bangalore to the thrillers at Mohali and Dharamshala, it has been a clash for the ages and the 2023 edition can't start soon enough for these two. So lend us your ears and dive right in.
