We bring you a special episode from Lords, where the TMS team had the honour of hosting the 2025 MCC Cowdrey Lecture.

In this first part, Jonathan Agnew is joined by former England captain Michael Vaughan to discuss what the Spirit of Cricket means to them, reflecting on moments from their playing careers.

They also talk about the changing landscape of the sport & Michael shares his ideas for how to further modernise County Cricket.

Part 2 will be out soon.
