Ep 403 - Beth Barrett Wild - Counting down the Days

With the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup coming to England and Wales this summer, Stephen Wallis looks ahead to one of the biggest events in the global women’s game in this episode of The Paddock and the Pavilion. Joining him is tournament director Beth Barrett-Wild, who is counting down the days until the opening match. With fewer than 100 days to go, Beth discusses the preparations taking place behind the scenes, the significance of hosting a tournament of this scale for women’s sport and women’s cricket in this country, and England’s chances on home soil.  The conversation considers what success for the tournament could mean for the wider game across the UK once the competition has finished.
