As the cricketing world went into a collective meltdown following Deepti Sharma's run out of Charlie Dean for backing up too far, we convened to ask the important question - what exactly is the Spirit of Cricket? Is it that peg of Old Monk that makes bad Bollywood cricket movies go down easy? It is the pissy smell you get in the poorly maintained toilets at Indian grounds? Is it the spit that's been permanently banned from ball-shining services? Is it... well... tomato chutney? Find out the answers in Episode 38, where we also take a punt on India's chances at the World Cup, and bid Jhulan Goswami a fond farewell.
