Stumped - Alyssa Healy to retire: Elyse Villani on her Australia teammates legacy
Download Alyssa Healy to retire: Elyse Villani on her Australia teammates legacy
Nikesh Rughani, Jim Maxwell and Sunil Gupta reflect on the career of Australia great Alyssa Healy after she announced that she will retire from all formats of the game in March. We are joined by her former teammate and fellow World Cup winner Elyse Villani who shares what she believes Healy’s legacy is and her captaincy style. Villani also tells us how she transitioned from player to commentator and why she made her decision to retire from playing in the Women's Big Bash League.
The fourth edition of the Women’s Premier League is underway, and we have already seen a hattrick and final ball thrillers. We discuss the tournament so far and go behind the scenes with Mumbai Indians player Milly Illingworth.
Plus, we celebrate another milestone for India's Virat Kohli and Jim tells us his thoughts on the 150th anniversary Test, which will be a pink ball Test at the MCG.
