Justin Langer vanishes

Season 13, Ep 2: There's a documentary sequel coming about the Australian men's team, but strangely this time Justin Langer is not positioned as the main character. Also, our listener Bryan R. Caine was the United States umpire officiating as Rakheem Cornwall bashed a double century in a T20 match this week. Bryan joins the show to tell the story. Cricket makes its pitch for the Olympics, the Maxwell Sheffield Shield is in full swing, and Jos Buttler opts for diplomacy. Should captains have to appeal for a dismissal? Do they have a responsibility to do so?
