Really interesting to hear about the history of women and girls’ cricket in England - 3:29 - 4:17 - a fantastic listen - with your help can we find out more about Scottish women and girls’ cricket - “Honouring our Past” campaign could make a fantastic exhibition and book.
I was honoured to be invited onto BBC TMS last weekend to talk about my book, The Women in Whites: A History of Women's Cricket in England.

The interview is still available for a few hours, so do have a listen here if you missed it (3.29 onwards):

Not a bang, but a whimper: T20 Blast finals day draws women’s summer of cricket to sparse end
