In this episode of the Silver Stumps podcast England O60s captain Richard Merriman joins hosts Grant Timms and Trevor Lee to reflect on the Over 60s Cricket World Cup final in which England were beaten by Australia. Richard is very candid in his recognition that this was ultimately a game too far for his team and that the Australians were well deserved winners who were particularly awesome in the field as well as very accurate with their bowling. Richard also talks about the time after the final when the squad spent time with the street children of India who are mad keen on cricket and he reflects on the humbling experience that that was. Richard also looks ahead to the five match series coming up this summer against Pakistan starting in early July. Pakistan were the inaugural winners of the Over 60s World Cup and have a squad that contains several ex-test players led by Salim Malik. We plan to be at one of the games with our podcast gear to cover it for a future episode.
