Shannon GillGUEST
Cruising.
Shannon GillGUEST
Greg Matthews sparks a little bit of a collapse.
Shannon GillGUEST
He takes some wickets.
Shannon GillGUEST
It's now game on.
Shannon GillGUEST
It's the Dino 11.
Shannon GillGUEST
Alan Borda, Matt Elliott, Jamie Siddons, Greg Ritchie, David Hooks, Doug Walters, Greg Matthews, Rod Marsh, Dennis Lee, Jeff Thompson.
Shannon GillGUEST
This is where it gets interesting.
Shannon GillGUEST
Jason Dunstall,
Geoff LemonHOST
This has been such a long tenure and, and it feels like a different world now that Heather Knight finishing with England and then Harmanpreet finishing with India as captain.
Geoff LemonHOST
She will continue to be available, Greg Matthews style, for selection and, and she'll get a spot for the time being, but that's gonna be interesting because there have been times in the last number of years when her batting returns haven't always been there, but because she's been such a big personality as captain, she's been undroppable on that basis.
Geoff LemonHOST
From here on, she'll have to demand a spot with not just runs, but the speed at which she scores them.
Geoff LemonHOST
So that's gonna be interesting to see if she can find a, a, a new final chapter iteration for herself, and to see how Smriti Mandhana, who's been the logical one to take over for a long time, manages that transition of having a, a former captain in the dressing room, uh, Ricky Ponting, Michael Clarke style.
Gerard WhateleyHOST
So Simon Hill is your host.
Gerard WhateleyHOST
Dean Jones and Greg Matthews are your experts.
Gerard WhateleyHOST
And it cuts up the five tests.
Gerard WhateleyHOST
It's about two hours.
33 MINS LATER
Gerard WhateleyHOST
Just the last word here.
Gerard WhateleyHOST
So Dean Jones has lost his voice for the special on SBS.
Gerard WhateleyHOST
And so Greg Matthews has to do it all until Simon Hill tries to get the last word.

Mo, you've heard of the film The Horse Whisperers.
Gerard WhateleyHOST
And Anthony went to the Sheffield Shield game in the late 80s, Victoria versus New South Wales, with about 20,000, a decent crowd.
Gerard WhateleyHOST
I remember it because there was this bloke in the crowd yelling continuously at Greg Matthews, you're a wig on a stick.
Gerard WhateleyHOST
The advent of the Shield final and Victoria's first
Shannon GillGUEST
win.
Shannon GillGUEST
There's one footnote too to that tour, which kind of leads into it.
Shannon GillGUEST
There's a guy called Roland Fishman who, I'll make the distinction, he was a writer, not a cricket writer, who was a connection of Greg Matthews, of course, and who goes on that tour, hangs around the team and everything that was going on in that tour and writes a book.
Shannon GillGUEST
Now, I think probably the people that were talking to or met with Roland Fishman during that time thought he was going to write the traditional cricket tour book about what happened on the field.
Shannon GillGUEST
No, this was a book about what a West Indies tour was like off the field.

And, uh, yeah, still easy to see as long as there's no one sitting in those seats.
MichaelAUDIENCE

Andrew McCullochHOST
... there's still a good one for you, good one for you, Heels.
Andrew McCullochHOST
Was Greg Matthews happy to field near the smoke-filled cage over in the winds?
Ian HealyHOST
Uh, captain, captain, do you need someone out here? [laughs]
Andrew McCullochHOST
[laughs]
Tom MorrisHOST
Happy birthday to Nathan Ellis, who turns 32 today, as I did mention earlier on in the show.
Tom MorrisHOST
But in 1986, Baz, the second tied test ever came to a conclusion in Madras when Greg Matthews, uh, picked up an LBW with the penultimate delivery of the match.
Tom MorrisHOST
Are you too young to remember this?
Bharat SundaresanHOST
Yeah, I was, I was less than a year old at that point.
