The Back Pass

If you've ever wondered what a cricket team and a California pizza have in common, we've got you covered! This week, we discuss the first cricket Test between NZ and South Africa, and look back at an eventful IPL auction. Could this be NZ's finest ever performance? And what exactly is a Super King?

Ahead of the start of the Super Rugby season, we are joined by the founder of Blues Supporters 4 Life, Paul Alexander, to preview the Blues' upcoming campaign. We apologise once again for Gurpreet supporting the wrong team: we're working on it!To join the biggest community of Blues supporters, go to https://www.facebook.com/groups/BluesSupporters4Life.

We discuss Rafa Nadal’s scarcely-believable comeback in the Aussie Open final; Gurpreet and Bhavesh wallow in their misery following the FA Cup weekend; and cricket’s drama cup gathers steam with some new entrants

We discuss the Australian Open: the thrills, the spills, the drama, the whole lot. Also in football: the international break and its effect on long-suffering club fans, who just want to catch a break in their fantasy leagues. P.S. Our audio was caught offside this week. Give us a break, we do this in our bedrooms!

As the January transfer window draws to a close, we look at the top 7's (and Newcastle's) wheelings and dealings, and predict who might be panic-bought this week.In cricket, we discuss the importance of the captain in modern-day cricket. Given the massive support teams at the top level, what does the captain do exactly?
