    Maaaate! It's a MAXIMUM! - I am loving this series, you can'te record them fast enough for me , I am devouring them on my drive fro mWichtia KS to Nashville TN, 11 hours of driving and where some podcasts on cricket ( that shall remain nameless ) are puting me to sleep, I am engergized going between Double Century and Red Inker......You stinker, make some more ! I love reading and listening to your stuff. I love what you are doing here on Double Century the Basil D'Oliveira ones and the racism in cricket. then the story of how test matches came to be and what games became test matches and why. LOVE it , am recomending it to everyone. Keep up the good work.
  • Ashrujit Ghoshal
    Thanks Jarrod
    I grew up listening to stories of test matches in 70s and 80s from my father. Listening to Jarrod brings back my childhood ❤️ Btw, for anyone who likes this book- I would highly recommend his book “Test Cricket: An unauthorised biography”, from which a lot of material is. Jarrod is a master storyteller!
  • Thinesh26
    Absolutely brilliant
    I have been a cricket fan all of my life.... But listening to Jarrod’s podcast made me realize how much I have missed the behind the screen things in cricket. Thank you Jarrod, for this absolutely brilliant endeavor. Keep it up. Eagerly waiting for more episodes from you.
