Episode 69: WBBL Finals Time & Cricket with Purpose ft Jane Maguire

Published: Nov. 25, 2022, 6 a.m.

We have tons to talk about! England have announced their new head coach, Jon Lewis not to be mistaken for the other Jon Lewis or the department store John Lewis. The Hundred has announced a draft for the women which begs the question should we copy the men's game? Former Ireland player, Kim Garth is in the Australia squad for their upcoming series in India. The Blaze (Cricket with Purpose) replaces Lightning and have announced their contracts. Lauren Winfield-Hill is back in the England squad but there's no room for Bryony Smith or Maia Bouchier. Katherine Brunt will not feature in England's ODIs but herself, Nat Sciver and  Heather Knight are back. In the WBBL, Laura Harris' strike rate has been through the roof and Georgia Redmayne celebrated too hard, injuring her achilles, which of course, she made a meme about. It all comes down to the final as Strikers take on Sixers! We also chat to Ireland's Jane Maguire all about the Pakistan series, the World Cup and more. We will be back next week with Ireland's teenage superstar, Amy Hunter who is set to feature in both the U19 World Cup and the Women's T20 World Cup in South Africa but in the meantime, our Instagram, TikTok & YouTube is “Noughtie Child Podcast” and our Twitter is “00ChildPodcast” so feel free to give those a follow to stay up to date!
