The announcement also came a day before a visit of a Pakistani delegation, led by foreign affairs state minister Hina Rabbani Khan, to Kabul.

To kick off this week’s Tuesday podcast, we got started with a look at the line combinations and whether or not Jay Woodcroft should adjust his top six based on how quiet everyone was last night in Minnesota.
