She's one of the most destructive batters in the world game. A game changer, a fire-stater...but we just know her as the World Boss. Deandra Dottin has been shocking the world with her incredible power-hitting and match-turning performances ever since she burst onto the international scene in 2008. She became the first woman ever to hit a T20I hundred and still holds the record for the fastest hundred in WT20Is and she's showing no sign of slowing. Georgie caught up with her just a few months after she came back from international retirement to discuss all things Windies, WBBL, the future and more.

Season 9 is upon us. Can you believe it?

To kick off this season we have someone who is pretty good at kicking a football as well as hitting a cricket ball and putting the fear into any batter who steps out of her crease. It’s Thunder Captain and wicketkeeper Ellie Threlkeld. The young captain chats about choosing cricket over football, the growth of the women’s game, her journey to this point and how she is chasing her dreams of playing for England. Plus THAT century to cap off the final game of a crazy season with Thunder. Alexandra and Georgie caught her just in time before she headed off for some well-earned R&R in Ibiza with Sophie Ecclestone and Alice Capsey. Beach cricket anyone?!

She may be just 17 but Mahika Gaur has already been tipped as a future star of fast bowling. The left-arm pacer made her international debut for the UAE aged 12 having first been inspired to start bowling when watching Shane Warne play in the IPL. Since then, she has grown (quite literally) into a tall seamer who was spotted by Lancashire during a tour to Dubai and has since made the move to train, play and complete her education in England. This year she signed her first pro contract, played for England A and now has her sights set on a future with England.

She caught up with (Auntie) Georgie to chat about her journey, the opportunities she's had, where she hopes to go, and what the future has in store.
