South African legends Barry Richards and Garth Le Roux join the CWAA crew of Saqib Ali and Vijay Arumugam for a candid and wide-ranging conversation in the new episode of the podcast. From the disruptive era of World Series Cricket under Kerry Packer to reflections on Imran Khan, the discussion spans decades of cricketing history.

The duo shares rare insights into the Currie Cup, the evolution of bowling techniques like the wobble seam, and the untold stories behind some of the game’s most iconic moments. Packed with context, nostalgia, and firsthand anecdotes, this is a must-listen for any serious cricket fan.

South African batting maestro Barry Richards is the podcast guest for the latest episode at CWAA. He joins host Saqib Ali for a candid deep dive to relive some of his cricket and administrative days. Richards is considered one of the true batting giants of the game - his stints at Hampshire and South Australia are stuff of batting folklore. He also looks back at the only test series he played against the Bill Lawry led Australian side. We also discuss that Golden hour of the Durban test in the same series where he and Graeme Pollock put on a display for the ages among other things.

In the latest episode host Saqib Ali is joined by familiar panelists of the podcast Vijay Arumugam, Deepak Rao and Kevin Framp to talk about the biggest test rivalry in men's cricket. On one hand is the Ashes with all its cultural and historical significance vs the BGT where the on field contest has featured the two best teams in the last few editions. The panel dissects both set of rivalries through the lens of competition, history, commercial contracts and fandom. It is a typical long format conversation the podcast has to offer!
