Bumrah bowls England back down to Earth
After a thrilling month of red ball cricket for England, it has been a week to forget for the white ball side.
Jos Buttler's opening T20 series as captain against India ended in a 2-1 defeat and his first ODI against the same opponent could not have gone much worse. The World Champions were bowled out for just 110 with Roy, Root and Stokes all going for ducks. Micheal, Phil and Ben unpack the thrashing and ask if it is simply a blip or if major surgery is needed with the T20 World Cup less than 100 days away.
Our guest this week is India spin bowling legend Ravi Ashwin, he speaks at length about his concerns for the one day game, his thoughts on 'Bazball" and what can be done in England to develop more spinners moving forward.
Away from the action on the field we get stuck into the best of your emails and discuss the elaborate fake IPL scam in India designed to con Russian gamblers.

Jos Buttler's baptism of fire & Ravi Shastri on what the IPL does next
Ben, Michael and Phil reflect on yet another frustrating series for new England white-ball captain Jos Buttler. After levelling the ODI series with South Africa, England were forced to settle for a draw after the deciding match at Headingley was rained off.
We discuss Buttler's stuttering start to life as skipper and draw comparisons with Joe Root's tenure as Test captain, suggesting that Buttler, like Root, is suffering from a lack of support whilst also dealing with a packed schedule.
Our guest this week is the Indian cricket legend Ravi Shastri. After having profound success as both a player and a coach, he has now established himself as one of the leading commentators in the game. Shastri discusses some of the highlights from his glittering career, how he thinks the IPL will develop into a two season competition and gives us his take on 'Bazball'.
We also discuss a remarkable innings from Glamorgan's Sam Northeast, who hit 410 not out in the County Championship before a declaration denied him the chance to break Brian Lara's record of 501!
