Azeem Rafiq - the man who rocked the sport in 2020 with his seismic revelations of racism - and experienced broadcaster Matt Kabir Floyd take an opinionated look at the big stories affecting world cricket and other sports on and off the pitch. A British Pakistani from Barnsley and an Anglo Indian from London, the two of them certainly don’t agree on everything and are more than happy to vociferously argue their point. Using their widespread contacts in sport and politics they bring in regular guests of note to help debate the topics of the day. Nothing is off the table! New episodes every Wednesday and look out for other ‘bonus episodes’ throughout the week.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-23T06:17:38.502140+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/it-s-not-just-cricket-6898930"},"episode":{"title":"Pak players in The Hundred & Eng into the Semis....again!","slug":"pak-players-in-the-hundred-eng-into-the-semis-again","published_at":"2026-02-25T05:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/it-s-not-just-cricket-6898930/pak-players-in-the-hundred-eng-into-the-semis-again","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/it-s-not-just-cricket-6898930","url":"https://pscrb.fm/rss/p/traffic.megaphone.fm/COMG5715595533.mp3?updated=1771996031","audio_url":"https://pscrb.fm/rss/p/traffic.megaphone.fm/COMG5715595533.mp3?updated=1771996031","summary":"Azeem and Matt look at the thorny issue of Pakistan players potentially not being selected on purpose for The Hundred - even if it was true, how could it be proven? Would the ECB actually be able to do anything about it anyway? At the T20 World Cup, England march into the Semi Finals courtesy of a truly sensational knock from Captain Brook - despite being nowhere near their best they are now just 2 wins away from glory. Meanwhile, all of a sudden, run away favourites India find themselves in the last chance saloon - could they really get knocked out of this home World Cup before the Semis?!
