Season 16, Episode 23: We might be about to see major changes at the ICC, if the man who already has the most power in cricket formally takes over the show. Dan Brettig from The Age brings us up to speed as heavy-duty discussions take place at Lord's. All of that ties into the proposed Champions Trophy schedule, and an amazing homecoming for India's victorious T20 team, even as a new Indian side falls to Zimbabwe. Plus a superb round of county cricket, and the slim hope that cricket's governors will support the exiled Afghanistan women to play the game.
