'I didn't know Australia had a women's team until I was 13' - Blackwell
Alex Blackwell reflects on the rise of women's cricket during her 15-year career.
Blackwell captained Australia to a maiden World T20 title in 2010 - one of five ICC world titles she won throughout her career.
But growing up, she used to look up to a lot of male cricketers because they had more exposure.
And Alex told Stumped that due to a severe lack of coverage, she didn't even know Australia had a women's team!
