For this episode, we are joined by Karunya Keshav, co-author of The Fire Burns Blue: A History of Women's Cricket in India. Few journalists have covered women's cricket in India as thoroughly as Karunya has, so she's the best person to discuss things like:

* Why we still don't have a Women's IPL and why it would be a game-changer for female cricketers in India 

* The pathways to the national team, including age-group and domestic cricket

* The social and financial challenges faced by female cricketers in India
