In this episode we speak with Pakistan opening bat Fakhar Zaman as he gives us a terrific insight into his mindset and what he expects from himself as a player.

Fakhar also speaks at length about how the side will look to bounce back from a first defeat of the season, in the previous match against the Abu Dhabi Knight Riders; what it has been like batting with his two opening partners this term, Andries Gous and Max Holden; and what the pitches and conditions have been like for this season’s matches.

Fakhar also talks of his role as a senior professional within the side and assesses the contributions of fast bowlers Khuzaima bin Tanveer and Naseem Shah as well as top-order batter Hassan Nawaz and he discusses the fact that, next up, the Vipers will be facing a Sharjah side that has won its past two matches.

It’s a fantastic conversation, full of fascinating insights.

This time we hear from captain Lockie Ferguson as he reflects on defeat by the narrowest of margins, one run, against the Abu Dhabi Knight Riders in Abu Dhabi.

The loss is the Vipers' first of this campaign after starting off with six successive victories, but the consolation is that the side is still comfortably top of the league stadings and has already qualified for the end-of-season play-offs

In this episode we hear from Head Coach James Foster as he reflects on the Vipers making it six wins from six starts this season, courtesy of a five-wicket victory against the Dubai Capitals at the Dubai International Stadium.

The success ensures the Vipers have qualified for the end-of-season play-offs but there is still work to be done to make sure of a top-two berth that would guarantee two opportunities to reach the final.

This was the Vipers' seasonal Sustainability Match, during which they shine a light on green issues, and we also hear from CEO Phil Oliver and Head of Strategy Matt Bailey as they explain why the franchise is so committed to this cause.
