The Covers Off Podcast, brought to you in association with AMT Auto, swaps cricket whites for chef whites with this week’s special guest, Tommy Banks.

Banks discusses mixing his love for cooking and cricket after it was confirmed that he will be heading up the new Edrich Restaurant at Lord’s next summer.

As one of the most revered chefs in the UK, Banks tells us about his aspirations of becoming a cricketer before working as head chef at a Michelin star restaurant in York, and his love for the game, especially the White Rose.

The Yorkshireman tells us ultimate cricket tea and what is was like facing Yorkshire’s bowlers in the nets earlier this year.
