The weather has changed. The grass out the back is starting to dry out. It’s backyard cricket time.
This week Dylan Middleton and Marcus Davies from the Trifecta Cricket Association will talk backyard cricket and give us the insights into the serious version of the game.
Have you ever made a hundred in the backyard at mum’s? Greg Champion has, and he wrote a song about it 30 years ago.
Greg joins us to share his stories of the backyard game and his love for his old home town of Adelaide.
In IS IT NEWS, Nigel tests us on the theme, Cricket.
Max Martin notes: “You don’t need a lot of space for some real gains!”
Our SA Drink of the week is a beer from Big Shed Brewing Concern that will hit you for a six.
George Inglis reflects on the hope that public transport is back on track.
In music, we hear Koral Chandler with a nocture for a night drive.
In the Adelaide Visa Council, we have something for the single gentlemen of Adelaide.
But first, David Washington from In Daily presents his midweek news wrap, Talk Of The Town.
