Tony Panecasio played a key part in Australia winning the O60s 2024 World Cup in Chennai and the Grey Ashes in November and December 2024.

Tony had combined figures across the World Cup semi-final and final of 10-45 with his 4-32 in the final including a couple of stunning caught and bowled's. He won the trophy for most wickets at the 2024 O60s World Cup.

In the Grey Ashes Tony took 10 wickets in the series bowling a full compliment of 9 overs in 4 of the 5 matches including 2 when he wasn’t in the batting XI.

We talk about both the World Cup and the Grey Ashes with Tony or TP as he is widely known. 

Tony tells us how his Australia O60s adventure began with an out of the blue call in November 2023 from selector Eric Higgins.

We also talk about Australia's O60s forthcoming tour to New Zealand and the changes to their squad for that. We also look ahead to Australia being back in England between June 24th and July 25th when once again the Grey Ashes will be at stake.
