"My dad pulled up YouTube when I was young and that's how it started. To stop me bowling with a bent arm and no balls, he said, 'Bowl like Jeff Thomson and you won't have that problem'."
Brits, who switched to cricket after injury forced her to retire from javelin, exemplifies the changing career opportunities as women's cricket has professionalised.
Brits is now the first South African woman to make two ODI centuries in their 30s.
This was the first time in an ODI, and second recorded instance in all formats, that Australia women's spin bowlers have taken 9 wickets in the same innings.
Molineux 10-5-10-3
King 6.1-2-15-2
Gardner 10-0-22-2
Wareham 9-2-30-2
The only previous recorded time that Australia women's spinners took 9 or more in the same innings, was when Betty Wilson (4-25), Una Paisley (3-10) and Amy Hudson (3-9) shared all 10 during the 2nd Test v England at the MCG in January 1949.
You might say "who cares about radio rights, when you can just watch TV?", but TNT's television coverage requires a subscription, whereas BBC TMS on the radio doesn't
Even beyond that wider reach, in my experience, radio coverage's more informal & interactive relationship with the audience can make it hugely influential in driving conversation and generating interest in the sport.
Huge congratulations to Meg Lanning on a peerless international career.
She retires as IMO the greatest women's one-day batter of all time, and as a captain who led Australia to a record five World Cup wins (not to mention a Commonwealth gold medal).
As captain, Lanning won a major title on five different continents.
This is the first time Australia women have lost three consecutive matches in all formats since a run of two T20Is and an ODI against New Zealand in Feb 2017.
