Stick to Cricket is back as Michael Vaughan, Phil Tufnell, Alastair Cook and David Lloyd are joined by Alex Hartley — brought to you by Betfair.

This episode is packed with big debates, strong opinions, and hilarious stories from the world of cricket.

We kick things off with a deep dive into the County Championship, should substitutions be introduced into cricket, and what rule changes could reshape the game?

The conversation then shifts to the role of the Chairman Selector, sparking a wider debate around captaincy, leadership, and how much influence coaches really have at the elite level.

Things heat up as the panel rank England’s current batting order with plenty of disagreement, and question whether a return for James Anderson is realistic or just wishful thinking.

Finally, Ben Stokes’ recent interview denying any rift with Brendon McCullum takes centre stage. Is everything truly fine in the England camp, or are cracks starting to show?
