Having first met the Afghan women Ckters in Jan 2023, I love hearing the stories of what they’re achieving off the field now - and Firooza Afghan has delivered a Ted Talk - Bravo 👏🏼 ted.com/talks/firooza_…

April will be 12 mths since the ICC announced a support fund for the #Afghan Women’s ckt team. Stumped has approached ICC to ask what will happen after this first yr. Hear what it’s enabled so far, as Tooba Khan Sawari tells me “I hope it will continue” podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/stu…

We spoke last week on BBC Stumped with an attorney at law about the challenges or otherwise of proving discrimination, should an allegation arise when it comes to player auctions in sport: podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/stu…

A great friend on & off screen ❤️ Do look up Mel’s story, as she wants to raise awareness to help others detect it early. 🙏🏼

All our best wishes to our own @Mel_Mclaughlin, who’s in recovery after being diagnosed with lung cancer. We can’t wait to see her back on @7NewsSydney, and then on our Commonwealth Games coverage later in the year, followed by the Rugby League World Cup and of course on @7Cricket next summer 🙏 Lung Foundation Australia: lungfoundation.com.au Cancer Council: cancercouncil.com.au

This is the flip side of player auctions. Big pay days for some, and a pay cut for others. Depends on so many factors, not always whether you had the best season or are currently in form. New era for domestic players in England to navigate.
Yas Rana@Yas_Wisden

Headlines may suggest better pay for all involved but that is not the case across the board. Emma Lamb, who had a decent campaign in 2025, has seen her salary drop from £50k to £27.5k.

@martisubash Were there complaints? I think general wonderment & celebration of where the game has got to, compared to where it has come from. Plus an acknowledgement of the challenges that can also bring for players not so accustomed to the pressures of a big price tag.

@AlisonMitchell No western analyst seems to complain now as they did when the Indians got a few high bids in Wpl or IPL

Fascinating watching @thehundred auction for the women’s comp. From highest fixed salary of £15k in 2021 rising to £65k in 2025, to Danielle Gibson now selling for £190k at auction in 2026. Women’s cricket in England & Wales has entered another dimension ✨ 💰 🌟 🏏

Had my car stolen this morning at 2am. Managed to find it in North London (30 mins away) by 8am. The two @metpoliceuk officers were outstanding! 🙏🏼

Nice to hear the mellifluous voice of @AlisonMitchell commentating at Crufts again this year. Sadly only the briefest of on screen appearances introducing her look-a-like dog the Saluki !

So often retirement is associated with loss: of career, of identity. But Alyssa Healy speaks so positively & excitedly about all the ‘firsts’ she now has to look forward to in her post playing life. Rich memories of the past, new experiences for the future. Congrats @ahealy77
