The Game Changers

Ebony Rainford-Brent: The story of a cricketing trailblazer

Listen on

Episode notes

It’s been a massive week for women’s cricket (and wider women’s sport) with the first player auctions in the inaugural Women’s IPL breaking all records. 

It feels very timely then, to re-release this powerful interview with former England Cricketer and World Cup Winner Ebony Rainford-Brent. 

Having been a trailblazing player, and the first black woman to play cricket for England, Ebony has gone on to lead the way as a sports broadcaster and activist for inclusion in cricket.
