Gidday and welcome to this episode of Just Havin a Crack

11 to 1

Today Banger and Blakey speak to former Australian women's cricketer Joanne Broadbent (OAM). Jo is a pioneer in her sport. Growing up in Adelaide playing cricket in the back yard with her friends a typical Aussie childhood.

Jo went on to represent Australia at Test and One-Day level with great results. Averaging over 109 with the bat, scoring a test double century and playing in front of 60,000 women and girl in a world cup final in India.

Think about that for a second, a women's sporting event with 60,000 spectators! That would rival an Olympic 100 or 200m final or a women's world cup soccer final.

Jo is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to cricket and has strong family values. Jo isn't just a pioneer in women's cricket she is a pioneer in women's sport.
