About this episode

It's been billed as the biggest women's Twenty20 World Cup to date - we've already seen quite a few surprises with Pakistan beating former champions West Indies and South Africa beating England in dramatic fashion - we speak to South Africa spinner Sune Luus about whether they can actually pull off one of the greatest shocks to go on and win the tournament for the first time.

Plus South African cricketer and Hampshire fast bowler Kyle Abbott tells us how Brexit affects his Kolpak contract.
