'Cricket saved my life'
Jade Rodriguez became hooked on cricket when her mum was volunteering as a scorer for a club in Lima and has played for the Peruvian women's national team since she was 11.
But the now 17 year old has been battling bullying and anxiety attacks throughout her childhood, and it nearly made her give up cricket for good.
Speaking to Stumped, Jade explains how the sport helped her through the attacks.
