A post-match football game against the opposition, a beer, and a limousine drive up a mountain. That鈥檚 how New Zealand fast-bowler Neil Wagner celebrated his side鈥檚 incredible victory over England in February. Wagner took James Anderson's wicket to beat the tourists by a single run earlier this year, and two weeks later he ran alongside Kane Williamson in their final-ball victory over Sri Lanka. He joins Alison Mitchell, Jim Maxwell and Sunil Gupta to share what it鈥檚 like to be at the heart of two of the greatest ever finishes to a Test match. Plus, with England and New Zealand set to face off in a warm-up series for the ICC Men鈥檚 Cricket World Cup, we鈥檒l get Wagner鈥檚 views on who the favourites are for the tournament.

We preview the Asia Cup, which finally gets under way next week following months of doubt over its location. The tournament was originally scheduled to be hosted by Pakistan, but last year the secretary of the Board of Control for Cricket in India, Jay Shah said that it would need to be held in a neutral venue, stating 鈥渨e can't go there and they can't come here.鈥� As a result, four matches are taking place in Pakistan with the rest hosted by Sri Lanka, including next week鈥檚 match between Pakistan and India.

Plus, Alison Mitchell speaks to the captain of the England Women鈥檚 Visually Impaired team, Kathryn Jelfs-White. Kathryn is currently leading her country in the team鈥檚 debut appearance at the IBSA World Games.
