The Final Word election special

Season 12, Ep 8: Always mix sport and politics, we say, so of course we had to start today's show with some reflections on Australia's federal election and the fact that a raft of dross has been washed downstream. What else? An interview with journo Tim Wigmore and economist Stefan Szymanski about their new collaborative book Crickonomics. Plus the cricket as Sri Lanka tour Bangladesh and the county champ reaches its season break.
