Reverse Swept Radio 166: The Lord’s Hum, rediscovering a Bazball innings from a century ago, and reviewing Stumped the play

Reverse Swept Radio - a cricket podcast

THE TEN MINUTE FORTNIGHT: For the third episode in a row, Andy visits Lord's, and Abdullah Shafique pulls off an impossible catch

"Maybe short legs around the world are cursing Shafique for resetting expectations for what short legs can be."

FROM THE ARCHIVES (11'20): Ted Alletson's 189 in 1911

"Play restarted at 2:15 and Alletson was out at 2:55. In those forty minutes, he scored 142 runs."

THE REVIEW (21'40): Stumped (2022) by Shomit Dutta

"We've all played in games of cricket that don't really matter, but they do matter to us. And so it's extraordinary to watch a Nobel prize winner anxious about scoring runs in an amateur village game."
