Former Australian Test captain Tim Paine joins Adam Peacock, Brad Haddin and you for another feature episode of Willow Talk. Paine is currently coaching the Adelaide Strikers BBL side and shares their plans for the upcoming BBL draft, as well as which international players he thinks would fit well in the squad.

The WTC final is underway in England and Paine shares his thoughts on the current state of the Australian side. He also doubles down on his views regarding the Kagiso Rabada incident, which he was vocal about earlier in the year.

Plus, we dive back into Painey's playing days as he shares memories of captaining the Test side, his debut alongside Steve Smith and his rivalries with the likes of Pant, Kohli and Root. And of course, Painey and Hadds share some of their greatest tour stories - you’ll want to hear these!
