Sri Lankan Women's Cricket
Sri Lankan women's cricket captain Chamari Athapaththu has been praised as a role model and legend by international commentators like Nasser Hussain for inspiring young women and girls to play cricket. Her impact on the sport continues to be recognized internationally.
Nasser Hussain really said "thousands of young women are playing cricket" like Chamari woke up one morning and cricket balls just started falling from the sky. Pretty sure most of them are still trying to figure out what a googly is, but sure, let's credit the captain for the entire infrastructure revolution. 🏏
