Scott Styris: The all-rounder

In this episode we talk about Styris' ‘streetfighter' nickname and the most high-profile on-field confrontations across his career, why he's not a good fit for the Black Clash, how the Indian commentary scene really works, the best pranks and gags from his high-profile marriage with his wife Nicky, the realities of life as a travelling player and pundit and his side of the story from his tussle with Anton Devcich in a Wellington hotel.
