"I’m interested in working in the cricket media and commentary"

Name: Eva aged 16 started playing cricket 10 years ago

Cricket Story: I play for my school, Yorkshire Cricket College and also Goole. My biggest achievement was at the age of 11 playing for the u17s and getting 34 wickets in one season. I’m interested in working in the social media side of cricket and commentary. I’d also like to develop my cricket and play it at higher levels.

Why do you love Maiden and wanted to be an ambassador? I think that women’s cricket still isn’t where it should be. When I play cricket, my clothes never fit properly as it’s all mostly made for men. I love cricket and it has always been such a big part of my life. I want to advocate for more girls/ women to play and enjoy cricket.
