    While cricket is usually associated with countries like India, Pakistan, and the U.K., the U.S. team is making the most of its time hosting the T20 Cricket World Cup. The team’s upset victory over Pakistan has the country eyeing a spot in the tournament’s next rounds. U.S. National Team batter Aaron Jones joins the show to discuss the sport’s big moment.

    Plus, Shannon Sharpe signed a multiyear with ESPN a year after being pushed out at FS1, a college basketball team from 1983 is suing the NCAA, and Christian McCaffrey celebrated a new contract, a Madden cover, and his birthday in one week.
