Footage: Marsh’s 2015 Cowdrey lecture

The annual MCC Spirit of Cricket Cowdrey Lecture was delivered by Australia chief selector Rod Marsh at Lord's this week, where he discussed, amongst other things, DRS, Shane Watson v Wahab Riaz, and the state of Test cricket.
The lecture is over an hour long, but ranges in topics that the former Aussie wicketkeeper is well-versed in, and is worth the effort to listen to. Grab a cup of tea and settle in.
