BBC World Service – Stumped, England’s 2025: A defining year for Bazball?

Could 2025 be a defining year for the England Men’s Test team, with a home series against India and an away Ashes to come.

Alison Mitchell, Jim Maxwell and Charu Sharma look ahead to a defining year for England’s men’s Test team with a home series against India and an away Ashes to come.

We hear from Zimbabwe’s Managing Director, Givemore Makoni, on the team playing a remarkable 11 Tests this year and what that means financially. He also tells Stumped why cricket at the Olympics must be different and not solely about the big nations like the Champions Trophy.

Plus, a new era for England’s women is underway. We discuss what fans can expect from new head coach Charlotte Edwards and her captain Nat Sciver-Brunt.
