The 'cricket master' was who Nina Oyama says she made her appeal to, in the 'Perform the most passionate cricket appeal' task.

Assistant Intro

Being a Taskmaster is a full-time job, one that I do for about 10 days a year. It means I don't have time for things like admin. I leave that to my humble assistant. We have the same name, so just to clear things up, I'm Main Tom and he's Lesser Tom. It's Tom Cashman.

Taskmaster's Sign-off

Tonight we learned that thongs, for the most part, are bound to the earth by the laws of physics. We learned the answers to three of the most complex riddles ever devised by three eggs. And we didn't learn a single thing about the actual rules of cricket. Most importantly, however, we learned our episode three winner is Julia!
