It's World Cup time, which also means it's preview time!
The show starts with an epic Baldwin explainer, before we each select a team to discuss in more detail (no prizes for guessing who we choose). With our biases out of the way, Raj poses four big questions to the group:

Which player/s are you most excited to watch?

Who is your dark horse team to lift the trophy?

Which team will underwhelm?

And who will make the semis, final and win it all?

We focused largely on the Super 12 stage of the tournament and beyond, but for a rundown of the early stages, you can dip back into recent episodes with Daniel Beswick from Emerging Cricket and Niall O'Brien, commentator and former Ireland wicketkeeper/bat.

Have we got it spot on? Or have we got it all wrong?

It really helps others find the show. You can also find all our written content, including our Hall of Fame series, at our website.

If you haven't already, dip back into our guest episodes, which include the likes of Jarrod Kimber, Bharat Sundaresan, Mike Hussey, Tim Southee, Niall O'Brien and many more.
