Hi there! Welcome to Episode 312 of Never on the Backfoot Podcast. In this special retrospective, we travel back to the summer of 1993—a tournament that almost didn’t happen, but went on to change the course of women’s cricket. 

From England lifting the trophy at Lord’s to India’s quietly significant campaign, from the emergence of Associate nations like Denmark to the heartbreak of defending champions Australia, we unpack the matches, moments, and milestones that defined the 1993 Women’s ODI World Cup.

Joined by Ankit, we chronicle the stories behind the scorecards: leadership under pressure, grassroots grit, funding battles, and the lasting legacy of a tournament that proved women's cricket belonged on the big stage.

Whether you're a cricket nostalgist or discovering this chapter for the first time, this episode is a celebration of resilience, breakthrough, and a game-changing summer.
