I'd like to thank my family and friends for their continual support over the years and to all those involved in helping me develop as a cricketer of which there are too many to mention.
Isa Guha
I do speak a bit of Bengali.
I love the multi-format series. Within it they've found a way to retain Test matches and England v Australia in the Test arena, they were always my favourite matches to play in.
I am High Wycombe born and bred.
As a pundit, it's important to tell the viewer something they might not know, be unbiased and not sit on the fence.
Back in 2005, we lost in the semi-final of the World Cup and that was a great learning curve for the team. It gave us a goal and even more of a hunger to win the World Cup, so we went away and set ourselves a long-term plan to do it.
When I was 11 I was scouted by the Thames Valley under-21s. It was really daunting. I was scared for my life when I went in to bat. The first ball hit me on the leg, the second ball got me out, so it wasn't great but it made me stronger.
When you start off a T20 innings you want someone who is going to be hitting the top of off stump, causing problems and being quite disciplined with the ball.
When we won the 2009 World Cup in Australia, we flew economy, shared hotel rooms and had a 10:45 P.M. curfew.
It is important for big names such as Sunil Gavaskar and Ravi Shastri to get on board and recognise that women do actually understand the game and they can play as well.
We used to live five minutes from the local cricket club in High Wycombe. My brother Kaush, who is seven years older, played there.
I've always been an England fan. I was born and bred here.
My parents were proud of the fact that I was playing cricket, they used to ferry me around during the weekends to play the game.
My brother was playing hockey, tennis, badminton... I basically copied everything he did.
I remember my England debut, in 2002. It came in Jersey, in a triangular tournament with New Zealand and India. To say that it did not generate great local interest is putting it mildly: our first game, against India, attracted a handful of spectators.
I am following the IPL. I think it would be great for the women's game, creating more competition and showcasing the world's best players from different countries. It would also be a stepping-stone to women's cricket becoming professional.
Mum was the strongest person I knew.
You want to get both sides of the story and it's my role to try and bring that out of people.
I think it's always really important in broadcast to be able to get different views across and not just go down one route, because that's essentially journalism.
I've never really seen myself as a role model, but if others see me as that then it's something of which I'd be very proud.
It's definitely good to play out of my comfort zone, especially in the Sydney Premier League which is one of the toughest leagues in the world.
I went through a phase after we won the World Cup of 'what am I going to do with my life.'
Cricket is a sport girls can play and be successful in irrespective of their background.
Once you get on the pitch you know you've got a job to do.
It would be great to see more Asian women playing cricket at every level.
England Women regularly play against Under-15 and U-17 county men's sides, which is great for the girls to take them out of their comfort zones. It's important to find a balance, though, because the way in which women's cricket is played is still very different.
I started playing cricket with my brother in our back garden when I was eight. The garden was long and thin, so it was perfect for us to play cricket in. We'd use a crate as the wicket. We broke quite a few windows.
As an athlete there are times in your career where, during a game, any decision you make seems to be the right one. The bowler bowls where you want, you don't have to think and you are so 'in the zone' that you are not aware of anything else around you.
It's been great to see broadcasters waking up to the fact that women do offer a different perspective.
It's about being true to who you are as a person. For example, I'm not going to shy away from an opinion because I have played cricket, whereas other women who haven't played cricket might be more journalistic about their approach.
I like Tendulkar and I think the Indian batsmen are stylish but I support England and I have always wanted to play for England.
When the cricket is serious and it's a really important time in the middle we focus on that but obviously when it isn't there is a lot of time to chat and we can use that as time to bring the comedians in a bit more. We get the balance right between getting the calling of the cricket right but having some fun as well.
At a personal level, doing well in the Ashes and winning it was a high.
I've been lucky in that my parents have always supported me with my cricket, but I've seen so many young Asian girls who don't keep up their sporting interests after the age of 12 or 13.
It has been a pleasure to play alongside some truly special cricketers and to see them grow as players.
I do love the Ashes and some of my best memories are from Ashes cricket. I just wish we'd played a few more Test matches.
I have had a bowl with the pink ball but it was in a day game at Wormsley.
T20 is the vehicle to make cricket a truly global game.
There isn't a traditional background of Asian women playing sport, but that's changing.
With four women commentators, the IPL have shown they have faith in women commentators to do a good job.
I definitely feel more attached to Kolkata than anywhere else in India.
It's not that there has never been a keen following for women's cricket in India.
In 2015, I was privileged to host the first ever televised Women's Test match during the 2015 Women's Ashes on Sky Sports, which saw every game covered of the multi-format series.
If you work towards goals, everything is achievable.
My parents are proud of my achievements. They send articles to my grandparents in India. Everyone's happy I'm doing something I want to do.
I feel very lucky and grateful that I've been welcomed by the Australian public.
When I first started playing cricket for England, there was hardly any coverage.
In T20, I think it's really valuable to have a bowler who can bring the ball back into the right hander at pace.
I used to play badminton in winter.
It's about who holds their nerve under pressure.
