The Diary Room

The Aussie women's team are in T20 World Cup mode and have already been in England for four weeks. This week, we’ve got our two opening batters Beth Mooney and Georgia Voll joining host Emily Collin. Possibly the most entertaining episode of the Diary Room yet, Beth and Georgia open the batting for Australia together but have an almost sisterly relationship and are not afraid to crack gags and be honest with each other. NOTE: we recorded this episode before Beth got injured which meant back-up 'keeper Georgia had to take the gloves. It's almost like we manifested it!
