Inside gambling addiction, with Patrick Foster

Season 12, Ep 5: Some books come along that command our attention, like when friend of the show Will Macpherson helped former cricketer Patrick Foster write his tale. It's a story of 2 million pounds lost to betting in 10 years, in a compulsion that overtook Patrick's life and the lives of those around him. Also this week, Australia's squads for Sri Lanka, Ben Stokes formalised as England captain, and Adam's county wrap.
