Sam Northeast joins the Badger, James Buttler, on this week's Cricket Badger Podcast for a chat about his life in the game and his hopes for the season ahead. He's on a plane to Australia soon with England Lions and makes no secret of his desire to play Test cricket. If you look at the next cabs off the rank, he has every chance!

Sam answers the Cricket Badger 20 Questions and, refreshingly, wants Test matches to stay at five days and wants young players to still view them as the pinnacle of the game.
