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":"Should Stokes and Atkinson have been suspended?","slug":"should-stokes-and-atkinson-have-been-suspended","published_at":"2026-06-22T16:18:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/it-s-not-just-cricket-6898930/should-stokes-and-atkinson-have-been-suspended","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/it-s-not-just-cricket-6898930","url":"https://pscrb.fm/rss/p/traffic.megaphone.fm/COMG3507575472.mp3","audio_url":"https://pscrb.fm/rss/p/traffic.megaphone.fm/COMG3507575472.mp3","summary":"So Ben Stokes and Gus Atkinson are back for the 3rd Test. But if they were cleared of any wrongdoing why did they have to miss the 2nd Test in the first place? Has Stokes been treated badly in all this when he should have been backed? Kohli and Rohit are in India's ODI squad to tour England but there's no room for Sooryavanshi...is this the right call? Should he not be rushed too quickly into the International set up to protect him? And the Women's T20 World Cup rolls on - the Aussies look back to their fearsome best but the smaller nations have pulled off some eye catching results - are the days of 2 or 3 teams dominating women's cricket over?
