Was the 2024/25 Border-Gavaskar Trophy the best series of all time? - Season 9 Episode 10
Gday Prairians and Welcome to Club Prairie Fire, Season 9 episode 9. We are super fond of tequila, Tabasco and the Duckworth Lewis Stern System. This episode I am calling… “Vaughany’s prediction was right… at least on our show.”
That’s right folks, 3-1 the mighty Australians have defeated India to claim the border Gavaskar trophy and our super soothsayer Michael “the 5th day sucks” Vaughan predicted it. What he didn’t predict was the epic spice that the series and in particular the 3 day, yes your heard it right, 3 day 5th test would toss up.
Not that long ago people were saying test match cricket was dull and boring, well hasn’t that turned around. Find another sport where 19 year olds with poorly formed patchy moustaches pick fights with the best bowler and the once best batsmen in the world. Let us say it loud and proud…Test match Cricket is back baby!

Tensions Boil Over in the India v Australia Series on Club Prairie Fire.
Seasons Greetings and welcome to Club Prairie Fire, Season 9 Episode 8. We are the ultimate lovers of tequila, tabasco and the Duckworth Lewis Stern System. This episode we are calling, “Everyone just chill out, It’s bloody Christmas”
Tensions are at an all time high here in Australia, with a series poised on a knife’s edge at one test a piece, Aussie quick Josh Hazlewood sustaining another injury, The Professor, Ashwin’s shock retirement out of nowhere, a gaggle of Aussie Journos in Melbourne who had the nerve not to understand Jadeja’s Hindi in a presser, and most dramatic of all, King Kohli, getting into it with the media throng outside the airport…goodness me pour me a bloody stiff sherry!
So much Drama to talk through so sit back, fill your plate with Turkey and all the trimmings and enjoy Club Prairie Fire!
