Download Left Arm Spin Special: Ashley Giles.
The King of Spain, Ashley Giles, is our special guest on this week’s Tailenders. Inevitably we travel back to the 2005 Ashes series - the greatest series of all time - but also reflections on the highs and lows of professional sport, the genius of Richie Benaud, bowling to Brian Lara, the Art of Spin and the challenges of running Worcs CCC. Plus Mattchin has a new feature ‘Village People’ as he seeks to discover the underbelly of Village Cricket.
