Best episodes of Silver Stumps - the Over 60s/70s Cricket Podcast

Short reviews from the PlayNext desk, based on the episodes we processed.

It’s 2-2 in the Grey Ashes!

A busy, grounded cricket special that leans on scorecard detail and the build-up to the next ODI.

Silver Stumps opens with England's 2-2 ODI leveller and keeps the pace brisk from there, shifting into the 60s results before turning toward the fifth ODI and Friday's follow-up.

Two years of the Silver Stumps podcast

A relaxed anniversary episode that keeps the clubhouse tone and gives proper thanks to the cricket community.

Silver Stumps uses its second anniversary to look back at where it started and how far it has come, with Grant and Trevor revisiting the first episode and noting that this is episode 93 not out.

It’s a tie! Last ball drama in the Grey Ashes!

A rain-hit Ascot decider and a tied finish, told as a warm seniors cricket yarn.

Silver Stumps gives the Grey Ashes decider at Ascot a clear, lived-in feel, moving through the rain delays, the late arrival, and the tie without losing the shape of the day.

O60s and O70s Cricket 2025 Season review

A season-closing cricket ledger that stays grounded in the people behind it.

Silver Stumps closes episode 84 as a season review, five months after the Season Preview on 25 April. It covers roughly 900 matches across about 28 episodes, moving from 60s and 70s league work into internationals, trial games, representative matches, tight finishes, and ties.

On tour at Eastnor and Hursley Park

A rain-soaked cricket tour with club memory, Lions talk, and grounded warmth.

O60s Knockout Matches plus England v USA

Senior cricket talk with USA series wrap, knockout updates, player survey chat, and a weather-rule debate that feels properly lived-in.

Silver Stumps, episode 77, moves from the USA series wrap into the knockout picture, with some useful senior-cricket housekeeping folded in. The player survey, the AGM build-up, and the debate over the 34-degree heat rule give it a practical, league-level feel, and the hosts…
