## Resource

It's now England's turn! With the success of the Red Roses and the Lionesses fresh in the memory, England head into the Women's World Cup carrying the weight of expectation from a home crowd desperate for another major sporting triumph. Melissa and Nikki discuss whether England can handle the pressure and turn their status as one of the favourites into silverware. The pair also reflect on the warm-up victory over India and the timely boost of captain Nat Sciver-Brunt being fit and ready for the tournament. With a talented squad, home advantage, and momentum on their side, England will be hoping this is their year. Plus, Melissa and Nikki chat about The White Stuff's "Taking Over" campaign, which is helping bring women's cricket into the spotlight ahead of the tournament. Featuring England stars Lauren Bell and Ebony Rainford-Brent MBE, the campaign celebrates the growth of the women's game and the excitement building around a home World Cup, highlighting how both players’ paths were shaped by chance moments that led them into cricket. The film captures their journeys and the growth of the women’s game. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
