It’s our final episode of the year and of course time for some Christmas chat. As well as our bumper review of 2025 Women’s Cricket through our eyes, we’re joined by Northants’ Mabel Reid to speak about her career so far, time at Loughborough University as well sharing her very insightful experiences after being diagnosed with autism and how cricket has been an accommodating space.
