Trent Copeland is our guest
Pete and Gideon talk to former Australian opening bowler turned Sydney Thunder boss Trent Copeland about cricket with red and white balls, on pathways and off, and whether his improbable career would be possible now. Also takeaways from the Australia-England ODIs, the India-Bangladesh Tests, the BCCI annual meeting, plus a look forward at the women's T20 World Cup.

Having taken some wicket and scored some runs and held onto some catches at Hurstville Oval…. Was great to hear from a St.George club great. Especially the Jack Edwards commentary.
Great episode guys. Very informative interview with Trent. I hadn’t appreciated he’d played a bit of County Cricket.
Now Gidz; a bit of correction on Hampshire County Cricket Club, of which I am a member: Hampshire is NOT member owned. It’s owned by a PLC (ie limited liability corporation) and it’s this that the GMR Group has bought a controlling stake in.
Essentially they’ve bought the hotel, the golf course, the Utilita Bowl & the operating business that is Hampshire County Cricket Club. As you say, this is a significant development.
Whilst I’m on, and given you are in the great city of Melbourne & I’m in Hampshire, I am always pleased to point out to any of my Aussie pals that Hampshire named a stand after the late, great & very magnificent Shane Warne long before it ever occurred to Cricket Australia or to the MCG.
Ok, it’s not quite as big a stand as the MCG but it will be there when Australia visit in the summer of 2027 ready to welcome all Ozzie & England fans. Hopefully you & Pete will find someone to pay for your air tickets so we can listen to your Tour of England. The grounds, the matches, the pubs, the walks, the music. I look forward to it.
