It's everything Ashes as we look back at Haydos and Blewie's Best England Ashes XI of their era.

From Cook’s durability to Botham’s myth. From Anderson’s longevity to Flintoff’s force. From Boycott to Broad.

This isn’t polite admiration. It’s elite opposition being assessed by the blokes who had to beat them with brutal honesty, hard numbers, and the occasional psychological scar.

Ashes rivalry, properly examined.

A golden-era argument for the ages.

Matthew Hayden and Greg Blewett lock horns over the ultimate Best Australian Ashes XI of their era.

From Steve Waugh’s ruthless leadership to Gilchrist’s game-breaking chaos. From Warne’s dominance to Johnson’s intimidation. From Hussey’s reliability to the Waugh twins’ class.

If you love Ashes cricket when it was hard, hostile, funny, and uncompromising, this one’s for you.

*We apologies for the quality of Haydos Mic for the first few minutes

“They’ve lost the Ashes in 11 days.”

Australia wrap the Ashes in 11 days: 3–0, done. From Adelaide’s South Aussie dream sequence to the brutal reality for England’s top order, JB, Haydos and Blewie pull apart what’s actually happened and why.

Nathan Lyon’s hamstring tear and what it means for Melbourne

Murphy vs Rocchiccioli vs Kuhnemann

Boland in the mix,

Usman/Green squeeze as Australia start thinking beyond this series.

Plus: Snicko copping a public flogging, Barmy Army earning respect, and a couple of commentary-box misdemeanours that should come with a hazmat label.

It's a massive ep!

“Warne would always put his hand out to the runners and say, ‘Hi, I’m Shane Warne.’ That tells you a lot. He never assumed anyone knew who he was.— Michael Atherton

Michael Atherton joins James Brayshaw, Matthew Hayden and Greg Blewett with England 2–0 down and under the pump.

• How he’s seen the first two Tests and where it has really gone wrong
• The truth about “Bazball” (and why the players never actually call it that)
• Whether Stokes and McCullum need to rein things in, or double down
• Jofra Archer’s pace, consistency and the criticism from Anderson, Broad and the Aussies
• Facing Glenn McGrath 19 times and knowing he “had my number”
• His affection for Shane Warne the broadcaster and bloke and the shock of his passing
• How he sees Test cricket’s future in an IPL-dominated world

Smart cricket chat, proper honesty, and a few very good laughs with one of the game’s sharpest minds.

Australia are 2–0 up and the Gabba has given us proper Test drama.

In this episode, JB, Haydos and Blewie unpack the fallout from Brisbane: Steve Smith’s icy response to Jofra Archer’s late bumpers, Travis Head’s continued chaos at the top, Alex Carey’s best match in the Baggy Green, and Mitch Starc putting together one of the great two-Test stretches.

The boys discuss England’s putrid bowling and butter-fingered fielding, Ben Stokes finally batting like a proper Test captain, Michael Neser’s moment, and the selection squeeze heading into Adelaide with Cummins and Lyon returning.

Plus Heals’ infamous wine nights, muffin discipline in the commentary box, and Piers Morgan copping both barrels.

Travis Head jumps on All Over Bar The Cricket to unpack that Perth innings, his mindset walking out, what he saw in the pitch, how he handled England’s plans, and the moment he knew the game was gone for the Poms.

Plus: some dressing-room stories, how Head deals with noise and expectation, and why his game has gone to another level in the last few years.

If you loved watching him rip England apart, you’ll want this in the headphones to get inside Head's head!

Greg Blewett has finally done it. Achilles gone, stretcher out, moon boot on. In this episode of All Over Bar The Cricket, JB and Mathew Hayden sit Blewey down and ask the obvious question: is it officially time to retire? Plus Usman Khawaja’s “piece of shit” spray about the Perth pitch vs the ICC’s “very good” rating, whether modern batting (and Bazball) is the real problem, and how Australia and England should line up for the Gabba pink-ball Test. Names on the table include Mark Wood, Michael Neser, Doggett, Pat Cummins, Nathan Lyon, Cameron Green and Bo Webster.

Plus a tease for Thursday’s Travis Head special.
