The 2s smash 3 from 3 with the old guard saluting Holty and his remaining injury free body parts; the 3s discuss how many of them are actually 2s players and reveal a pod exclusive; and Kristian and his new Kiwi friend Lily look ahead to the Middlesex Cup final as the Ealing Cricketer farewells the season and our overseas players in fine fashion.
