Haynes: Time to immortalise women’s cricket stars
Australian cricketer Rachael Haynes on equality and new South Africa captain Temba Bavuma
We reflect on the India/England test match series, discuss the potential of England squad rotation during the Ashes and preview India against New Zealand in the Test Championship final.
Plus the team will be joined by Australia women’s Vice-Captain Rachael Haynes after Cricket Australia announced that they are going to be addressing gender imbalances in the game, including the lack of statues of female cricketers around the country. We also hear what she thinks of women’s Test Cricket versus the shorter format of the game.
Finally we will hear fromTemba Bavuma, who has become the first black African to permanently captain a South Africa side after being appointed their limited-overs skipper.
