Would you support Western bombing of Syria? US President Donald Trump said Syria would pay a 'big price' after a suspected chemical attack. After that we're joined by historian Dr Kim Wagner who pieced together the story of an Indian soldier whose skull was discovered in a pub in Kent. He's written a book about it called 'Alum Bheg'. Then Professor Jacqueline Stevenson from Sheffield Hallam University talks to Dil about a report he's working on which suggests many Muslims face Islamophobia, discrimination and racism from the time they start school, through university and into the work place. The Indian Premier League started over the weekend and Dil is joined by a panel of guests to see who the winners and losers will be.
