Mary Waldron's Most Treasured Cricket Career Moments

In this episode of the Her Sport Show, we had the privilege of chatting with Mary Waldron, a former member of the Irish Women's Cricket National Team, who just announced her retirement. We encourage you to watch the video version of the podcast on Spotify or YouTube to see the images Jess and Mary are referring to.
