The Saudi move on cricket, with Daniel Brettig

Season 14, Episode 6: After our initial conversation last week about Saudi Arabia wanting to buy Indian cricket, it's time to talk to Daniel Brettig, who did some substantial reporting for The Age. Also this week, Ireland bat big in Sri Lanka, New Zealand level a ridiculous T20 series in Pakistan, Glenn Maxwell and David Warner roll on in the IPL, Jimmy Anderson hunts another target in the County Championship, and the Rachel Heyhoe-Flint Trophy gets underway in a flurry of sixes.
