Next Episode: E6: What Rory Sutherland thinks about when he thinks about sport

This week’s guests are sports biz guru Tim Crow and Derek Pringle, the former England test cricketer turned journalist and author. We explore the links between the original breakaway ‘cricket circus’ of World Series Cricket in the late 1970s and later innovations including the emergence of Twenty20 in the noughties, the IPL and the ill fated Stanford debacle through to the ECB’s new brainchild, The Hundred which launches in 2020. We also discussed Derek's new book, Pushing The Boundaries.
