On the eve of the Australia-South Africa NMRA Insurance Test series, we get a preview from both sides of the fence
Unplayable Podcast: Carey, Maharaj preview Tests
Australia-West Indies. Two-nil. Too easy.
Next up is South Africa and they come with pace, and lots of it!
Aussie keeper Alex Carey (which begins at 12:00) chats to the Unplayable Podcast about their comprehensive wins over the Windies and how they've been preparing for three-Test series against South Africa. There's also a little reminiscing on couple of greats grabs, and a certain great goal as well!
We also welcome our first international guest of the summer, South Africa's Keshav Maharaj.
Maharaj made his Test debut in Australia six years ago, and now he's back part of the Proteas squad that's chasing four consecutive wins Down Under.
He chats to Josh Schonafinger about spin bowling, his Test hat-trick and playing until he's 40.
