Today we welcome Mel Jones to the podcast. A previous member of the Australian Women’s Cricket Team, Mel has played on the winning side of two World Cups and two Ashes series, and also played 61 One Day Internationals. She also played domestically in teams both in England and Australia before her retirement. Since then, Mel has worked as a successful talent manager and has become a dominant voice in cricket commentating. Through this, she’s cemented herself as an advocate for women in sport, particularly in the development of careers in sport both on and off the pitch. Last year was a big one for Mel; she received the highly prestigious Order of Australia for services towards cricket and the community, and late last year joined Cricket Australia on the Board of Directors.
