I would be surprised if any of these ladies get even 1/1000th of what the male cricketers get (money/fame/media, you name it).Srayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04259657832508489336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9779736.post-1112975794544940582005-04-08T21:26:00.000+05:302005-04-08T21:26:00.000+05:30oh, as for the post, well it needs visibility sure...oh, as for the post, well it needs visibility surely. But it also needs a grassroots movement, somewhere - gurls throwing shot-puts or javelins or running marathons is deemed ok, or gets encouragement but gurls playing cricket doesnt. <BR/><BR/>more importantly very few do play.<BR/><BR/>If they do win, and it gets headlines, I think its somewhat going to be like the Sania Phenom. <BR/><BR/>I remember reading about USA suddenly taking up soccer -guys that- cos the Women won it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9779736.post-1112975595618849832005-04-08T21:23:00.000+05:302005-04-08T21:23:00.000+05:30Ah, you still are bloggin, eh?good, good.Thought y...Ah, you still are bloggin, eh?<BR/>good, good.<BR/>Thought you had disappeared from the blogging world.
