Season 6, Ep 5: It was 2005 when Nat started covering cricket on South African radio, and the next year she was commentating as South Africa stunned Australia by chasing 434 in Johannesburg. By now she's done 85 Test matches and hundreds of one-dayers, and is preparing to follow her World Cup with her first women's Test in the Women's Ashes. Natalie sits down with The Final Word at Lord's in London to talk about childhood dreams, the slowly changing nature of broadcasting, the importance of example, and the complicated society of South Africa.

The Final Word is produced by Bad Producer Productions.
