Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The Women in Whites is the first-ever history of women's cricket in England, tracing its story from the eighteenth century to the present day. It shows that women have been part of cricket from the very beginning and have often been at the forefront of innovation.From the invention of round-arm bowling in the 1800s to competing in the first Women's World Cup in 1973, the first Twenty20 international in 2004, and England's first franchise competition, the Kia Super League, women have consistently helped shape the game.The book introduces the pioneers who founded the first Women's Cricket Association in 1926, organized a shoestring round-the-world tour to play the first women's Test matches, and spent forty-seven years petitioning the MaryleboneCricket Club before finally being allowed to play at Lord's Cricket Ground.Along the way, The Women in Whites challenges long-held assumptions and demonstrates that cricket is not, and never was, only a man's sport.
