Tell us what you think of this episode
This season represents an historic departure for Glamorgan CCC as they play both a men's and women's professional team for the first time in their history.
But the path to this point has been a long and arduous journey for women's cricket.
In this episode we talk to Jill Matthews who, as a young Jill Ayres, played a significant role in women's cricket in South Wales during the 1950s and 1960s.
She gives us an insight into what it was like being a woman interested and keen to play cricket at that time, the difficulties faced by the players in maintaining their organizations and the enjoyment she got from playing the game.
