We chat with Rash and Mel about their experiences of the England Over 60s cricket tour to Australia in November and December.

Rash was the man on the microphone keeping all of us who tuned into the live YouTube feed in the early hours entertained as well as informed.

Mel was one of the two England umpires on the tour and officiated some of the state games which the England team used as warmup and mid ODI matches.

We had a great fun talking to Rush and Mel as they reflected on their fabulous experience including one or two thoughts about the learning that the England team can bring back as they plan for a return of the Australians as well as the West Indies and the USA in the English summer of 2025

We will be back in 2025 with our first episode scheduled for January 10th when Trevor will be using his new found knowledge as a qualified coach in running fitness to share some thoughts and ideas for Over 60s and Over 70s cricketers years as they prepare themselves fitness wise for there 2025 season

In a last over finish Australia beat England by 2 wickets to take an unassailable 3-0 lead in the Grey Ashes. A low scoring tense match saw England almost valiantly defend 169 but it wasn’t to be. So congratulations to the Australians.
We analyse the match from our live watching throughout the night on You Tube and You Tube catch up.
We recorded this episode live in Northamptonshire so if it sounds a touch echoey that’s why.
