Jay Shah: A new era in world cricket at the ICC?

Stumped

Available for over a year

A new era in world cricket is imminent as Jay Shah has been elected unopposed as the next Independent Chair of the International Cricket Council. He will be the youngest ever ICC chair. Alison Mitchell, Clint Wheeldon and Sunil Gupta discuss what this means for the sport. Preparations for next month's Women's T20 World Cup have stepped up a level with holders Australia, England, India and Pakistan all naming their squads for the tournament in the UAE. It was moved from Bangladesh following civil unrest in the country. England spinner Linsey Smith joins us on the programme to give us her reaction to being back in the England squad. We also reflect on a historic moment for Bangladesh as they beat Pakistan for the first time in Test cricket. Photo: Jay Shah of the BCCI at the T20 World Cup Final. (Credit: Getty Images)
