About this episode
The 1997 Women's World Cup will forever be remembered for Belinda Clark's record-smashing 229 not out and the heaving Eden Gardens crowd for the final between Australia and New Zealand.
But if you ask the players who were there, they remember the other stuff: Elephants at the ground, pop stars in the hotels, monkeys on the nets, luggage falling off the bus, missed flights, oppressive heat, torrential rain and Christmas abroad.
This is the story of Australia's journey to the 1997 World Cup.
