Welcome to Season 1 of the Popping Crease. This is a podcast hosted by Alan, Ani and Anand - who like most of us are major cricket and sports fans. The Popping Crease is a podcast that is dedicated towards cricket content. We will try to have engaging discussions with targeted topics and take an analytical preview of things to the best of our ability.


In the 11th episode, we are back to our Direct Hits segment, where we look at back some of the greatest games in cricket's history! This time in Direct Hits, we look back at the greatest white ball game of the 2000s era. Probably even the GOAT!! You guessed it right. South Africa vs Australia at the Wanderers in 2005, where Australia posted a mammoth 434 but were unable to defend their world record score.


This is a 2 part episode. In the first part, we look at Australia's innings as we drive down nostalgia lane.
