Ebony Rainford-Brent discussed England and the upcoming Kia Super League on a Women's Cricket Week special of Cricket Writers on TV.
Cricinfo journalist Melinda Farrell and Derek Pringle of The Cricket Paper joined former England star Rainford-Brent and host Paul Allott at Bristol to look at the burning issues within the women's game. Click here to download the show as a podcast.
Rainford-Brent was effusive in her praise of England head coach Mark Robinson and opener Tammy Beaumont after the side's 3-0 ODI series win over Pakistan - the latter becoming the first Englishwoman to plunder back-to-back ODI centuries.
The panel also discussed the new 20-over Kia Super League for English women's domestic cricket, which will see the top home-grown players and the best international stars square off, and the contenders for next year's Women's World Cup in England.
Plus, they assessed how the women's game has grown in popularity - and whether smaller boundaries are a good thing.
