What about women in the aussie cricket team.

February 11 2013

I was just watching the women's cricket on the abc and wondered how long before one of the girls gets asked, and if she would want to play withthe boys...   I for one think it would be great...   Mike

    Fastest woman bowler on record is Jhulan Goswami who bowls at 120kph! . Fastest male bowler on record is Shoaib Akhtar is 161kph! . If you watch the cricket you would see that most balls go down the pitch at roughly around 130+ kmp So...do the guys then have to restrain their bowling? Or do you suggest underarm be bowled to the women? Same as basketball. baseball, AFL (elite level and even at domestic level), the level of play between men and women are different! It would be a joke if that was to happen, I for one would turn off the game! Having being involved in International Cricket it would be a sad day indeed! Worse suggestion EVER! xFunlovingx

    HAHA got ya.... When cricket was first played it was played mixed teams....   Overarm was only brought in because women caight their hamds in their then ballooning skirts.   So.. overarm bowling was allowed but no bending of the arm..   Its a stick and a ball game Tendulkar isn't ezactly a large man,,   Mike   Ps atill like the idea.. bobyline would have started a war...

    Pmsl, agree with Funloving though !It's only a matter of time before a really first class female spin bowler surfaces though. I think it suits a female mind.And no I didn't say Warnie was a girl ! Did I ?
