History

The 1960s was nothing short of a dream run for the English women’s cricket team as they didn’t lose any of the 14 matches they played in that decade.
They played their first ODI against International XI at County Cricket Ground, Hove in June of 1973. They made their T20I debut against New Zealand at the same ground in 2004.
