The Cricket Pod: Age just a number in IPL even as T10 unearths young star

In this episode, we take stock of the cricket tournaments drawing the most attention on both sides of the Arabian Sea

This week on The Cricket Pod, co-hosts Paul Radley and Chitrabhanu Kadalayil talk about the Indian Premier League opener on Saturday.
