“In Case You Missed It” Episode 4 of Leading Edge with Scent is a starting point masterclass in building South Africa’s next generation of women cricket stars. Hear me out… hear me out…
Scent is joined by Corne Alexander, head coach at Durbanville Cricket Club, SA Cricket Academy mentor, and a Convener of selector in the Girls U16 and U19 squads at Western Province Cricket Association. If you care about the future of women’s cricket, you want to hear what he has to say. And since I also care, I look forward to hearing more from Corne around women’s cricket development and the business of cricket.
In this episode, they unpacked:
- The 24/25 CSA Awards, talking about a few standout moments, lessons, and what they mean for the game.
- The duo also discussed South Africa’s talent pipeline, how young female cricketers are being developed (and where the gaps still are)
- Where I was on full alert and attentive was their discussion on the power of great coaching, especially in shaping confident, skillful young bowlers
It’s an honest, positive conversation about passion, purpose, and what it really takes to shape future stars. And to recap it without inviting you to check it out wouldn’t be a cool thing to do!
