Season 11, Ep 14: The women's Ashes Test match is about to start, so we were very fortunate to sit down for an hour with England's captain Heather Knight. A chat about leadership, development, and the wider world outside cricket. Also this week, Ireland's series win over the Windies, India's one-dayers in South Africa, and the last few bits of men's Ashes wash-up.
