Day 3: Old Trafford a washout as play is abandoned - a podcast by BBC Radio 5 live

Allison Mitchell presents the TMS podcast from a soaked Old Trafford, where persistent rain meant there was no play on the third day of the 2nd Test between England and the West Indies. However, there’s still plenty to enjoy from the TMS team. Allison speaks to Sir Alastair Cook and Phil Tufnell about Ben Stokes after yet another brilliant innings and how he may develop over the next couple of years. With The Oval set to be one of the venues to trial welcoming back fans to cricket grounds, the Surrey chief executive Richard Gould explains how preparations are going. And it’s cricket, but not as we know it…commentator Pommie Mbangwa joins the team to discuss the inaugural Solidarity Cup in South Africa: a new format featuring three teams each facing 12 overs in two six-over blocks, with the match split into two halves.
