Cricket Ultras duo Arun Sudhaman and Darren Burns return from the festive break to preview the South Africa vs India series starting later this week, the first part of a crucial year for Indian cricketing fortunes. Also under the spotlight is Steve Smith's (relative) decline and, more realistically, his rise to becoming the game's pre-eminent batsman. The ongoing Ashes series continues to throw up questions, not least around whether Bird and Crane can ruffle feathers. And the Cricket Ultras also reveal their highlights and lowlights from an action-packed 2017.
