The Cricket Collective - Anderson's Injury Scare & How Does Test Cricket Survive In The Franchise World?

Neil Manthorp is joined by the former England fast bowler Steve Harmison to discuss the week's biggest stories. They ask how worried England fans should be after Jimmy Anderson suffered a 'minor groin injury' in Lancashire's draw with Somerset, and they debate how Test Cricket can survive in a fast approaching era of T20 franchise Cricket, while they also hear the thoughts of the England Test Coach Brendon McCullum. Durham captain Scott Borthwick reflects on their nail-biting one-wicket win over Yorkshire and discusses the turnaround at the club this season, and we review Round 6 of the County Championship. We end the show by reflecting on the week's other big stories, as Daren Sammy is named the West Indies new white-ball Head Coach, and the ICC decide to scrap the soft signal rule.
