Description

To score an Ashes century is certainly an impressive feat. To score an Ashes century while breastfeeding at lunch and tea breaks with a nine-month-old baby in tow is nothing short of incredible.
That’s exactly what Sarah Elliott did in the 2013 Ashes Test in Wormsley.
Sarah joined Laura and Emily in the studio a few months ago for the final episode of Baggy Green Queens, presented by CommBank.
It was a wonderful chat about her determination to return to elite level cricket soon after giving birth to her son Sam, as well as how special it was to see her son on the sidelines as she raised her bat for her first Ashes ton on the other side of the world.
Sarah also talks about the work she did alongside the ACA and Cricket Australia to help develop the game-changing parental leave policy that supports professional cricketers through pregnancy and adoption.
