About this episode

The episode features discussions with prominent women in cricket during the MCC Women's Day at Lord's.

Season 20, Episode 7: Live from Lord’s at the annual MCC Women’s Day. Adam Collins brings you a series of chats from prominent women in cricket, proving that it’s not just what happens on the field or on TV that keeps the juggernaut of the women’s game rolling. From Meg Lay, the first woman to prepare an international cricket pitch, record-setting German international Tina Gough, Dutch captain and ICC Europe boss Esther de Lange, and sports apparel pioneer Leigh Burns from our partners at Lacuna Sports. But the star of the show was our own Enakshi Rajvanshi, who marked her Lord's debut by uprooting some stumps.
