Retirements and Substitutions with Suzie Bates and Jimmy Neesham

We are privileged to honour one of the greatest to play the game on the show this week.

This week the pod gets taken over by two recognisable faces for Kiwis sitting in their living room.

TV Presenters Sonia Gray (Mind Menders, Lotto, Wheel of Fortune) and Matt Gibb (Breakfast TV, Find my Country house, Squirt) are known to New Zealanders from making literally hours and hours of tele but, when they aren’t doing that, they are usually glued to the cricket.

Join them as they go through their own (modest) playing careers, their run ins with actual, real life cricketers and what they would change about our beloved game.

The annual Players' Golf Day is a special occasion for so many reasons not least because it brings together nearly all the Blackcaps and White Ferns in one place. It’s also a hugely important event, raising vital funds for The Cricketers’ Trust, supporting past players who have fallen on tough times.

Before the day gets underway, Ben catches up in the sun with four of the biggest names in the men’s game for a relaxed and insightful chat you won’t want to miss.
