Episode 1: Stories on Women's Cricket and forgotten legends of Indian cricket

The beginning.

In my debut conversation, I sit with Aditya Bhushan, author and cricket writer, to delve into the history of women's cricket in India. He shares fascinating stories about the pioneers such as Shubhangi Kulkarni, Aloo Bamjee, Diana Edulji and M.K. Sharma.

We unpack his forthcoming book, Her Story Her Glory: The Making of Women's Cricket in India and explores what it takes researching and writing a book with a historical account.

We reflect on the stories, struggles and triumphs that have shaped women’s cricket and acknowledge the pioneers whose contribution remains largely overlooked.

Furthermore, the conversation goes beyond the book as Aditya shares never heard before stories about Indian cricket legends such as Salim Durani, Anshuman Gaekwad and Col C.K. Nayudu.

Join us on this enlightening conversation.
