Episode 6: Review of the Pakistan-Australia Test Series, Azeem Rafiq, & English Cricket w/ Taha Hashim (Usman Khawaja, Yorkshire Racism, Root’s Captaincy, & Naseem Shah)

So I’m really lucky to have Taha Hashim with me today.

Taha writes for Wisden Cricket Monthly and was recently commended for the Young Journalist of the Year award by the ECB (https://twitter.com/taha_wisden?lang=en). Taha was recently in Pakistan covering the Pakistan-Australia Test Series, and joins me from the UK.

We talk about Usman Khawaja's form, the Azeem Rafiq-Yorkshire racism story, the criticism of Joe Root's captaincy, watching Abdullah Shafique bat, Naseem Shah's action, Pat Cummins's ridiculous consistency, and much more. This is Taha Hashim's interview with Azeem Rafiq that first brought the Yorkshire racism story to the surface: https://wisden.com/stories/interviews/the-extraordinary-life-of-azeem-rafiq
