About this listen
In this episode, cricket journalist Tim Wigmore joins the podcast to discuss whether the so-called 'Golden Age of Cricket' was exactly that. We talk about the speed of scoring, the evolution of bowling, sticky wickets, racism and whether the Golden Age was a missed opportunity for the globalisation of the sport.
Tim Wigmore is a sports writer for the Daily Telegraph (UK), and has also written for The Economist and ESPNCricinfo. He is the author of Crickonomics and Cricket 2.0: Inside the T20 Revolution, which won the Wisden Book of the Year in 2020. His latest publication is Test Cricket: A History, and is available here.
