I'm really proud that my favourite sport has female commentators and co-commentators as the norm, not just male dominated. Sometimes I'll show a friend a cricket clip and they'll go "oh, a female commentator?", I'm so used to it now that I don't even notice. I must admit, I did notice a bit at first years ago, not that I ever minded.
I say this after watching some Europa league highlights with a female co-commentator, and so many of the comments are about how annoying she is, or that they'd prefer a man commentating instead. It's quite saddening and very sexist imo, so it makes me appreciate that great game that is cricket for being more inclusive in this regard.
