Diana Edulji, the doyen of women’s cricket and the world record holder Mithali Raj will feature on Harsha Online next week. In this theme based episode, Diana and Mithali will discuss issues concerning women’s cricket in India. The episode will be telecast on Monday at 10.30 pm on Star Sports.

Edulji’s name has almost become synonymous with women’s cricket in India. In a memorable career spanning 14 years, she has rendered yeoman service to women’s cricket in India, emerging as one of the most successful bowlers India has produced. Her services to women’s cricket were honoured with a Padma Shree Award. Today, Diana plays her role as sports officer with Western Railways.

Last August, Mithali recorded the highest score in the history of women’s test cricket. She scored 214 runs against England in the second and final test at Taunton surpassing the previous world record of 209 not out set by Australia’s Karen Rolton, also against England, at Leeds last year. Mithali also adds variety to the Indian attack by rolling her arm over to bowl leg-spinners.
