Episode 6 - The Final Frontier: Those at the top of the women's game know there's only one solution if women's cricket is going to thrive, and that's to amalgamate with the men. But how is that going to happen? And who will help deliver it? It takes some inspired help from a future governor general plus several key moments - on field and off - to keep the momentum building. And to set up that golden moment at the MCG in March, 2020, when 86,000 fans turn up to cheer Australia on to win the T20 World Cup.

Episode 4 - From ship to shore: Buoyed by the success of the first summer of international cricket, the Australian women's team embarks on its first tour of England, at a pivotal moment in British history. And while the advent of War will disrupt many competitions, there's a burst of activity after 1945 that puts Australian women in the ascendancy before the arrival of the exciting Swinging Sixties makes cricket look old-fashioned, for everyone.

Episode 2: The wheels of change. The fluctuating fortunes of women's cricket as a new generation of players emerge from the challenges of World War I and the Depression.
In this episode of The Maiden Summer we see how the momentum of the early years of women's cricket is lost as the power of international events relegates women's sport to a secondary concern. But as Australia recovers from the War years, a new era arrives, not just on the cricket field, but in newspapers, where the first of a generation of women sports journalists take on the role of reporting and promoting women's cricket.

Episode 1 - The Trailblazers: those who battled hostility, scepticism and doubt to forge a path for the next generation of women cricketers.
In this episode of The Maiden Summer we tell the story of the women who challenged the idea that cricket was a game only for men. From early charity matches and newspaper scandals, to the first time a team of women from Australia play a team of women called "England", this is the story of the women who fought for the right to play Australia's national pastime.

Australian women's cricket has been a feature of our Summers for 150 years. And today's World Champion Australian team actually stands proudly on the shoulders of some of the most talented, bold, and daring women of every generation.
Pivotal to that success is the first Australia and England women's test series held here in the aftermath of the brutal 'bodyline' Ashes series in 1932/33. It was a moment in time when the crowds turned up in their thousands to watch the women's tests, the newspapers devoted column inches to the contests, and our women's cricketers looked set for a cherished place in the national sporting land. It was the long, hot days at the end of 1934, and the bright start of 1935. It was, for Australia's women's cricketers, the maiden summer.
Featuring re-enactments and archival audio from the formative periods in Australian and International womens' cricket history, this podcast tells the story of the fight for women to play Australia's national sporting pastime.
