The rise of women's cricket with Karunya Keshav - Episode 9 Coffee By Two
-
- Hobbies
Not much has been written about women's cricket. The Fire Burns Blue is a book that seeks to turn the tide and bring the evolution of women's cricket to the fore. Thoroughly researched and beautifully written, the book goes behind the scenes of women's cricket in India. On more than one occasion, it seemed as though women's cricket had turned a corner. But the last year, where the women's team didn't play cricket for almost a whole year while the men's team played an IPL and toured Australia brings back the inequality that still exists. What we speak about in the episode:
a) The T20 World Cup final in March 2020 that saw a full house at the MCG
b) People and organizations who have helped women's cricket over the years
c) Karunya's partnership with her late co-author, Sidhanta Patnaik
d) What Karunya hopes to write in the sequel
