Latest / The Final Word Cricket Podcast

How do cricket pitches work? The complete guide, with Lord’s pitch boss Karl McDermott

Season 14, Episode 21: It’s all we talk about. Everyone who watches cricket will go on about the pitch - too flat, too fast, too dry, too green - and almost none of us knows anything about them How are they made? What do the adjectives mean? What is the process?

In a special request episode for Enthusiast level Nerd Pledger Simon Wallace, we find out, with Lord’s head groundsman, or curator if you will, Karl McDermott.
