Episode 277
Wednesday, 27 November, 2024
Hi there! Welcome to Episode 277 of Never on the Backfoot Podcast. In this episode, we dive into the announcement of Pakistan women's cricket central contracts for 2024-25. We’ll explore what this means for the future of women’s cricket in the country, and how these contracts could shape the next generation of players. Join us as we break down the key highlights, analyzing both the hits and misses of the new contract list. From player inclusions to exclusions, and what this move signals for the overall growth of women’s cricket in Pakistan – it’s a comprehensive look. We’ll also discuss how these contracts compare to those in other cricketing nations and what steps Pakistan can take to ensure sustained growth and visibility for their women cricketers. On the podcast today for this discussion, we have Aayush Puthran. He was born in Mumbai and currently writes for Cricbuzz. He is also the author of ‘Unveiling Jazbaa: A History of Pakistan Women's Cricket’. Over the last nine years, he has written about the game and the players around the world, specialising in women’s cricket and cricket administration. Follow him on Twitter @aayushputhran. 🚨A couple of corrections in the episode, please note: Aayush uses the word 'match fees', he is referring to salary (monthly retainers) in that context. Also, Aayush said that they're looking for a women's chairperson but he actually meant a head for the women's wing.
