2 2 The ICC would like to thank all its Commercial Partners for their support of the ICC Women s World Cup England and Wales 2017

3 3 WELCOME ICC CHIEF EXECUTIVE I extend a warm welcome to members of the media who are in England and Wales to cover the ICC Women s World Cup 2017, the third time the pinnacle 50-over event for women has been staged here. Women, of course, have been the torch-bearers in relation to the World Cup because they organized their first one in 1973, two years before men played their first World Cup, also in England. This fact definitely adds credence to our tag line for the event Who Runs the World? The tournament brings together the top eight teams, who fight it out in a grueling round-robin format with every team playing each other. The ICC Women s World Cup will be played at five venues including the final at Lord s. I believe this event is the biggest opportunity we ve ever had for the women s game. The standard of cricket is improving rapidly and the gap between sides is closing just as fast as more of our Members invest in the women s game. All eight teams competing here this summer are professionally contracted and we will no doubt see some exciting, compelling and absorbing cricket as the teams vie to be crowned World Champions. The appetite for the game from fans is also growing at an astonishing pace highlights from the recent Women s World Cup Qualifier attracted almost 18 million views. Demand for tickets has been healthy too, the opening game between England and India was sold out and the final at Lord s will also see our biggest ever crowd for a Women s World Cup final. As we look forward to a world-class event in world-class conditions, I take this opportunity to thank the England and Wales Cricket Board, its staff, ground authorities and volunteers in helping us organize this mega event. My colleagues at the ICC too deserve appreciation for striving hard to ensure a special event. I would also like to thank our commercial and broadcast partners for their support, without which the event would not have been on this large scale. As for the media, our thanks are due to each one of you whether you re reporting from the games or enabling fans around the world to engage in our sport from the confines of your newsroom. The growth of the women s game is in part due to your commitment to coverage and on behalf of the ICC, our members and of course the players, I extend a big thank you. The ICC media team has planned and worked hard to arrange top-class media facilities at the venues as well as provided editorial material, images and videos through the tournament to ensure wide coverage. We hope all the effort will be worth it and women s cricket will be the winner in the long run. David Richardson ICC Chief Executive

4 4 WELCOME ECB CHAIRMAN As Chairman of the England and Wales Cricket Board, it is my pleasure to welcome you as part of the broadcasters and media that will cover the ICC Women s World Cup This year will be the third time that we have hosted the tournament, having hosted the inaugural Women s World Cup in 1973 and the fifth edition in The women s game has come a long way since 1973, especially here in England and Wales where it is thriving at all levels. This has translated into a large demand for tickets, with us on track to host the biggest tournament to date. We are honoured to be hosting the first ICC Women s World Cup where the players will have parity with the men s tournament in areas such as travel and accommodation. This shows real progress in the development of the women s game and something that the late Baroness Rachael Heyhoe-Flint campaigned hard for. It s a pity she won t be here to see it, but I know we will work hard to put on a spectacle that she would have enjoyed. The world s best players are set to battle it out over 31 matches at the County Grounds in Bristol, Derby, Leicester and Taunton, with the final at Lord s. There is plenty to see and do in each of our great host cities and our staff, as well as Cricketeers, our team of volunteers, will be on hand to point you in the right direction. I hope you enjoy the tournament in what will be a thrilling summer of cricket. Colin Graves Chairman of the England and Wales Cricket Board

6 6 SECTION ONE travelling in the United Kingdom 01 TRAVELLING IN THE UNITED KINGDOM

7 7 SECTION ONE travelling in the United Kingdom travelling in the United Kingdom The United Kingdom (UK) is made up of England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, and has a population of over 65 million people. The UK is located off the north-western coast of continental Europe, with a total area of approximately 243,610 square kilometres (94,060 sq. miles). Lying between the North Atlantic Ocean and the North Sea, the UK comes within 35 km (22 mi) of the northwest coast of France, from which it is separated by the English Channel. English is the main language throughout the UK, but you will also find Welsh being spoken in Wales. The UK is a hub of cultural diversity, and you will find different languages being spoken wherever you go. Climate The UK has a temperate climate. The temperature varies with the seasons, with summer starting around June. This will see the average temperatures start to rise to 20 C (68 F). The prevailing winds come off the Atlantic Ocean in the south-west, and can bear frequent spells of mild and wet weather to the west. During the summer months, this is normally at a minimum, leaving the UK dry and warm. The Monarchy The monarchy is the oldest institution of government in the world. Queen Elizabeth II is directly descended from King Egbert, who united England under his rule in 829. The only interruption in the history of the monarchy was the republic, which lasted from 1649 to Today, the Queen is not only Head of State, but also an important symbol of national unity. The Queen s title in the UK is Elizabeth the Second, by the Grace of God of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and of Her other Realms and Territories Queen, Head of the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith. In the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man, the Queen is represented by a Lieutenant-Governor. The Commonwealth Although the seat of the monarchy is in the UK, the Queen is also head of state of a number of Commonwealth states. In each state, the Queen is represented by a Governor- General, appointed by her on the advice of the ministers of the country concerned and completely independent of the British Government. In each case, the form of the royal title varies. Other Commonwealth states are republics or have their own monarchies. In British-dependent territories, governors usually represent the Queen. Religion The official religion in UK is Christianity as practiced by the Anglican Church. Followers of this branch of Christianity are known as Protestants. Christians constitute about 71% of the population, but the UK is a multi-faith society and all other religions, including Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, Judaism and Sikhism are freely practiced.

8 8 SECTION ONE travelling in the United Kingdom travelling in the United Kingdom Safety and security England and Wales are generally considered safe by international standards, with low rates of street crime and violence. Like anywhere, it is worth using common sense and taking sensible precautions like those you probably already practice in your own country. Here are a few tips: It is advised that you have insurance cover for your travel to the UK Plan your route before you leave Do not leave your bag unattended anywhere - this can lead to a security alert In the UK, cars drive on the left. To ensure you cross the road safely, use designated crossings and only cross when the green figure shows. Take note of the signs indicating to look right or look left to spot oncoming traffic. All media personnel are advised to refer to the specific advisories issued by their respective national agencies. Medical and vaccination information Be sure your routine vaccinations are up to date prior to your travel. You do not require an International Certificate of Vaccination when travelling to the UK, but you should check if one is needed on re-entry into your own country. The National Health Service (NHS) offers walk-in medical centres throughout the UK, which provide healthcare advice, information and treatment for minor injuries and illnesses. These centres are open to overseas visitors, though a charge may apply. These centres can be found at Finance The Great British Pound (sterling) (GBP) is the currency used in United Kingdom, with the symbol. The approximate exchange rate: 0.80 GBP to 1 USD. ATMs (cash machines) are widespread around all city centres at banks, high streets, supermarkets and shopping centres. International cards are commonly accepted providing they have a four-digit PIN encoded. Contactless cards are also now widely accepted. Banks are generally open from 9:30am 4:30pm Monday to Friday and 10:00am 1:00pm Saturdays. Banks are closed on Sundays. All cards bearing the Visa, MasterCard or American Express logo are widely accepted in the UK. If your card does not display one of those logos you should contact your bank in advance prior to your travel. Tipping Tipping is not obligatory in the UK. In some restaurants, a service charge is added to the bill, typically 10% or 12.5%. This will be noted on the menu as service included. If service isn t included you are not obligated to tip. It is at your discretion if you wish to leave a tip or not and can ask to remove the service included. For taxis, it is not necessary to tip but is customary to round up to the nearest pound on metered taxi journeys or if the driver has assisted with your bags. Arrival Information Visas and Customs Visa requirements are frequently revised, and you are advised to check with the United Kingdom visa website for the latest information regarding your entry to the UK: Custom controls at UK points of entry distinguish between goods bought within the European Union and duty free goods bought elsewhere. Visit HM Revenue and Customs website for full details:

All media attending the tournament agreed and accepted the terms and conditions at the time of applying for tournament accreditation. Note that non-rights holding broadcasters will not be permitted to bring any recording equipment into the venue on match days. Photographers will be issued with a Photographer s bib in pre-match briefings to provide access to the Field of Play during a match. Tournament accreditation pass collection procedures Written press and photographers must collect their accreditation from one of the accreditation centres shown above. All accreditation must be collected in person. You will be asked to produce the photo identity document you provided when you applied online in order to collect your accreditation. Lost / stolen / forgotten accreditation passes Any lost or stolen accreditation represents a potential compromise to tournament security. It is therefore essential that every effort is made to look after your accreditation. A lost or stolen accreditation should be immediately reported to the nearest police station (a police report will be required), to any operational accreditation centre, and via to icc2017accreditation@ecb.co.uk. A full police investigation will be undertaken prior to any decision being made to re-issue the accreditation and is likely to cause a delay. If an accreditation has been left at a hotel or other local venue, the accredited media person will be required to return to the location to retrieve it. No additional, temporary or match day pass will be issued. Match day access You would have already made match selections at the time of applying for accreditations. Though we don t envisage a problem with accommodating all members of the media, should there be a paucity of seats for the semi-finals and final due to too many applications, we may go according to an established ICC pecking order, if needed. Accreditation for press box positions/photo positions at the semi-finals and the final will be made after the conclusion of the first round of matches

30 30 SECTION TWO ESSENTIAL MEDIA INFORMATION ACCREDITATION GUIDE Priority order for match days There are two match-specific media priority orders; one for determining the allocation of press seats in press boxes and overflow seating areas, and another for determining the allocation of photographic positions. Though we are flexible with the media attending matches at different venues with a central accreditation, should there be a need to limit attendances for any particular matches, the ICC will use its established pecking order. Media priority order for the ICC Women s World Cup 2017 is as follows: Priority for press/non-rights broadcasters: 1 International News Agencies 2 National News Agencies from competing countries 3 National Daily Newspapers from competing countries* 4 National Daily Newspapers from other countries* 5 National Sunday Newspapers from competing countries* 6 National Sunday Newspapers from other countries* 7 Cricket Website journalists 8 TV / radio reporters from competing teams 9 Cricket specialist magazines/publications from competing countries 10 TV / radio reporters from other countries 11 Cricket specialist magazines/publications from other countries 12 Regional Daily Newspapers from competing countries 13 Regional Daily Newspapers from other countries 14 Other Regional Daily Newspapers from competing countries 15 Other Regional Daily Newspapers from other countries 16 Sports specialist magazines from competing countries 17 Sports specialist magazines from other countries 18 General interest magazines from competing countries 19 General interest magazines from other countries 20 Other organisation / publication / website journalists Priority for photographers (not including ICC Photographer): 1 International Wire Agency 2 National Wire Agency from competing countries 3 National Daily Newspapers and recognised specialist cricket photographers from competing countries* 4 National Wire Agency from other countries 5 National Daily Newspapers and recognised specialist cricket photographers from other countries* 6 Photo wire agency from other countries 7 National Sunday newspapers from competing countries* 8 National Sunday newspapers from other countries* 9 Photo agencies (with sponsored assignments) from competing countries 10 Photo agencies (with sponsored assignments) from other countries 11 Regional newspapers from competing countries 12 Regional newspapers from other countries 13 Website 14 Freelance photographers from competing countries 15 Other freelance photographers * For matches taking place on Saturdays, Daily publications will exchange priority position with Sunday publications.

31 31 SECTION TWO ESSENTIAL MEDIA INFORMATION ACCREDITATION GUIDE Code of Conduct Please note that all journalists and photographers adhere to the code of conduct for the tournament as well as the tournament media terms and conditions which were agreed to while signing the accreditation form. For full details, please refer to the media section of the official event site. Photographers should adhere to the requests of security personnel, tournament officials and venue staff at all times. Special Requests for photographers Final arrangements at each venue will be confirmed at the photographers briefing. Should photographers wish to take venue shots prior to the game they should make this clear to the venue photographer manager before the briefing. Every effort will be made to give photographers access to their requested vantage points. Equally, should photographers wish to gain access to a specific elevated position or locate a remote camera, they should make this request to the venue photographer manager. Whenever possible, photographers are encouraged to meet with the photographer manager prior to match days at the stadium to discuss any special requests. Wherever possible, the requests will be facilitated, although access to restricted locations may not be available in all cases. Photographers should note that any cameras or equipment left in remote positions or unattended at any time are the responsibility of the individual. The ICC, ECB, tournament staff and volunteers cannot take responsibility for any equipment misplaced, damaged, lost or stolen. No Shows Journalists and photographers who have requested and been allocated to a match-day or photo position and who subsequently fail to collect that ticket, or fail to report their cancellation before the deadline without good reason, may be penalised and placed at the bottom of the priority order for the next match. Multiple no-shows without prior warning may result in further match requests being suspended for the individual and organisation. Failure to attend two match days, which have been requested by an individual, may result in the withdrawal of accreditation. Journalists who have changed their plans and will not be attending the tournament, are strongly advised to alert ICC Media Accreditation Manager, Marie Ehuy, at icc2017accreditation@ecb.co.uk. Failure to do so will jeopardise their accreditation for future ICC Events. Parking slots Arrangements have been made for some parking slots at most of the venues. For more details and requests for car parking, please get in touch with the venue media managers.

32 32 SECTION TWO ESSENTIAL MEDIA INFORMATION ADDITIONAL MEDIA SERVICES Tournament Photography For the ICC Women s World Cup 2017, ICC/Getty Images will be providing images on match as well as nonmatch days, a selection of which will be available on the Online Media Zone for free editorial use. All images taken from the ICC/Getty Images collection from the Champions Trophy 2017 should be credited as ICC/Getty Images. Online Media Zone (OMZ) The Online Media Zone will have all information relevant to the tournament and will continue as a source of all ICC news throughout the year. The OMZ will be open for all media persons and not only those registered for the tournament. The ICC Online Media Zone will include the following features: Match previews, reviews and features Guest columns Media releases and advisories Teams media releases and advisories Unedited audio and video clips of player interactions Contact details of ICC, team and venue media managers Important information about the tournament, including playing conditions, prize money, teams daily schedules etc Digital event media guide ICC Website and App The ICC Women s World Cup website will be launched on 20 June, accessible at For the first time ever, there will also be a dedicated App for the ICC Women s World Cup, available for download on GooglePlay / Android. The website and App will provide the following coverage of the tournament: Fixtures, results and points tables Ball-by-ball coverage, commentary and interactive scorecards Match previews and reviews Special columns and articles Fantasy gaming and other fan content Predictors/polls Match video highlights and archives Video features and interviews MRF Tyres ICC Rankings General event information

33 33 SECTION TWO ESSENTIAL MEDIA INFORMATION ADDITIONAL MEDIA SERVICES Match reports, features and interviews for free use The ICC will provide features, interviews, match reports and analysis in the run-up as well as through the tournament, which will be available for free editorial use on the Online Media Zone. This will enable media outlets to cover the tournament even remotely. Those on site too will benefit from these inputs while writing their reports and plan different news stories. Mixed Zones The ICC will introduce mixed zone as a new initiative for the semifinals and final of the ICC Women s World Cup These will be demarcated areas where the matchday accredited media will have the opportunity to do brief stand-up interviews with players and coaching staff, strictly about the just-concluded match and/or the next match. Teams will make some players available, likely to include the Player of the Match (who will not be required to attend post-match media conference), outstanding performer(s) of the match and career milestone achiever(s) etc. Players from the losing side are expected to first walk through the mixed zone, individually or in twos rather than all at the same time, from the dressing rooms on their way to the team coach, followed by players from the winning side. As it is unrealistic to expect all the players to speak to all the journalists, even in pods, the media will be briefed and requested to pool their quotes to ensure everyone gets what they need. The ICC will try to provide audio and video clips from the mixed zones wherever possible, which will be available for free download and editorial use on the OMZ. It is important to emphasis that the players will only review or preview a match and will NOT take any questions that are either not related to the tournament or can cause a potential breach of the ICC Code of Conduct. Journalists breaching this policy will run the risk of being banned from attending future mixed zone activities. Video coverage Arrangements have been made for filming captain interactions during the ICC Women s World Cup The unedited recordings of the interactions posted on the OMZ will be available for free download. There will also be other video material produced by the ICC digital team that may be made available on the OMZ. This will ensure that media outlets are able to use footage according to their requirements for regular reports as well as other news stories and features.

38 38 SECTION TWO ESSENTIAL MEDIA INFORMATION MY CITY GUIDE BRISTOL Heather Knight England women s captain Also captain of Kia Super League team Western Storm, which plays home matches at the Bristol County Ground. Which are your favourite places to eat? I absolutely love eating out one of my favourite things about being a cricketer is getting to travel the world and try new foods. A bit closer to home, when I m in Bristol, Sticks & Broth is a regular stop for me it s an award winning Japanese restaurant in the centre of the city, serving amazing ramen dishes. Or, if you are out with friends and love to share some tapas, head to Pata Negra in the heart of Bristol s Old City to enjoy a cool Spanish vibe. During the day, grab a coffee from Small Street Espresso. What do you think are the things to do and see away from the cricket? Bristol is a brilliant city and there is plenty to do on a rest day away from the cricket. Take a walk to the world famous Clifton Suspension Bridge for a cool photo opportunity, or if you are an art fan, book onto a Banksy Walking Tour around the city to see some of his earliest and original works up close. A few of us went on the Banksy Walking Tour last summer on a rest day during our series against Pakistan I would really recommend it. Which is your favourite part of the city? Gloucester Road in the north part of the city has a series of really quirky, independent bars, cafes and restaurants. I can spend a lot of time hanging out there with friends and family. Which do you think are the best places to shop? St Nicholas Market on Corn Street is one of the best and biggest covered markets in the country. I could spend hours walking around all of the stalls, and enjoying the atmosphere and incredible architecture of the building. What are your fondest memories of the ground? Last summer we played in an absolute thriller for Western Storm against Surrey Stars at the Bristol County Ground. I personally didn t get any runs (!), but we managed to chase down 161 to win in the final over with our two overseas players - West Indies Stafanie Taylor and South Africa s Lizelle Lee, belting it all over the place. It was an incredible match to be involved in a fantastic advert for the women s game. Who is your favourite Gloucestershire cricketer? Steve Kirby was probably my favourite Gloucestershire cricketer when I was growing up. He always played with such passion, and you could never doubt that he wasn t giving the game everything he had. He was always very entertaining to watch.

39 39 SECTION TWO ESSENTIAL MEDIA INFORMATION THE BRISTOL COUNTY GROUND Home to Gloucestershire County Cricket Club, the Bristol County Ground was first established in 1889 when it hosted a match against Lancashire. Situated in the north east of the city, the ground is located off the Gloucester Road. It first hosted a women s ODI in 1984 when England beat New Zealand by 55 runs. Since then it has hosted two more, including England v Australia in the 2015 Women s Ashes where Australia s Meg Lanning scored 104, which stands as the highest score in a women s ODI at Bristol. Other ground records include Big Jim Smith scoring the fastest first-class 50 in 1938 when playing for Middlesex. He took just 11 minutes, with six sixes and two fours. Tom Goddard took 17 wickets in a day at the ground during a match against Kent in He is one of only three players to achieve this.

In the 2011 census, the population was 248,700.

42 42 SECTION TWO ESSENTIAL MEDIA INFORMATION MY CITY GUIDE DERBY Danielle Wyatt England women s all-rounder Also a former member of the Derbyshire Cricket Academy Which are your favourite places to eat? O-kra. It s a really authentic Indian restaurant in the Friar Gate area of Derby. I absolutely adore Indian food, and O-kra always serves up some absolute treats it s a firm favourite with the Wyatt family. What do you think are the things to do and see away from the cricket? When I was growing up my Nana and Grandad would often take me walking in the Peak District National Park in northern Derbyshire, and we would always finish with a hearty lunch and drink in the Winking Man Pub.The Peak District is one of the most beautiful spots in England, so I would thoroughly recommend a trip out of the city to enjoy some fresh country air if you get the chance. Which is your favourite part of the city? Probably the city centre itself it s quite a small city compared to the likes of neighbouring Birmingham and Nottingham, but this means that you can get a feel for things really quickly, and there are some great places to get coffee. I love a good coffee shop I ve been on a barista course, and when I retire from playing cricket I d love to open up my own café. Which are the best places to shop? The Intu Shopping Centre in Derby is definitely the place to go! I think it might even be my favourite place to shop in England it s only 30 minutes or so from my house, it s never too hectic and it has every shop I need..i spend far too much money in River Island! What are your fondest memories of the ground? I spent a lot of time at the County Ground when I was growing up as part of the Derbyshire Academy squad, but I have only played a couple of international matches there, both back in The second one was against New Zealand, and I was batting at number three. My whole family was there watching, and I was playing really well before I managed to absolutely belt a ball from one of their slower bowlers straight down the throat of the fielder out at deep mid-wicket Doh! We still won the match though, and it was great to play in front of all my friends and family. Who is your favourite Derbyshire cricketer? Steve Stubbings is an absolute legend of the club, and was someone that I admired growing up. From their current squad, I was part of the Derbyshire Academy with Alex Hughes, and we got on really well, so I always like to keep up with how he is getting on.

43 43 SECTION TWO ESSENTIAL MEDIA INFORMATION THE COUNTY GROUND DERBY The Derby County Ground has been the home of cricket in Derbyshire since the Club s formation in November I propose that a cricket club be formed representing the whole strength of the county, to be called The Derbyshire County Cricket Club. Walter Boden, 4th November 1870 The ground has a rich sporting heritage and has hosted many events including an FA Cup final, international football and cricket, horse racing and the original home of Derby County Football Club. The Club has invested a million pounds during the off-season to improve facilities for members, supporters and conference and events customers. The County Ground pavilion has been transformed into a new and exclusive facility for Members on match days and a state-of-the-art 300-seater Conference & Events venue. This is the first phase of the club s long-term vision to develop an outdoor amphitheatre capable of hosting international cricket, concerts and community events.

45 45 SECTION TWO ESSENTIAL MEDIA INFORMATION CITY INFORMATION LEICESTER Leicester is an exciting cosmopolitan city with a proud history stretching back to 2000 years. Set in the heart of one of England s most attractive counties, the surrounding villages and countryside are easily reachable to explore. Our central location in the Midlands makes it accessible from all directions. It takes just 62 minutes to come to Leicester on a fast, direct train from London. Leicester is brimming with things to see and do, with state-ofthe-art, award-winning venues, a fantastic calendar of events and festivals, renowned museums and galleries, a range of cuisines, areas of natural beauty and ancient heritage. Cricket has been played in Leicestershire since the early 18th century, and along with football and rugby, is the main sport in the area. The game became popular with framework knitters who could work hours to suit themselves which left afternoons free to practice or play the game. Places of Worship Places of worship such as churches, synagogues, mosques and temples can be found across the city.

46 46 SECTION TWO ESSENTIAL MEDIA INFORMATION MY CITY GUIDE LEICESTER Tammy Beaumont England women s opening batter Tammy lives just up the road in Loughborough Which are the best places to eat? I like a bit of heat in my food, so I would recommend Lilu Cuisine, which is an award winning Indian restaurant, with a cool mix between traditional Indian curries and lots of fresh fusion twists on the classics. The city centre is also packed with all the usual major chains, and I d be lying if I said I hadn t been to the Nandos once or twice! The best place for a caffeine fix is the Coffee Counter on Bowling Green Street. What are the things to do and see away from the cricket? Following the discovery of King Richard III s skeleton in a Leicester car park, a state of the art visitor centre has opened next to the site, so for the history buffs amongst you, that could be an interesting afternoon out. My preference is always to get outside a short 25-minute drive north of the city centre will get you to Bradgate Country Park, where you can get up close to some wild deer. Which is your favourite part of the city? The Terrace Champagne & Cocktail Bar is a great place to hang out with friends, it has a brilliant atmosphere and often has live music, so a perfect spot to enjoy some downtime when we aren t playing or training. Which are the best places to shop? The Highcross Shopping Centre is the best bet for a bit of retail therapy. My bank balance inevitably takes a bit of a hit whenever I pop in there! What is your fondest personal playing memory of the ground? Last summer I scored my first One-Day International (ODI) 50 at Grace Road, and in the same match Katherine Brunt took her 100th ODI wicket and the skipper Heather Knight took five wickets and hit a 50 in her first match as England captain it was a pretty special match, and the start of a recordbreaking summer for us as a team, so that one will definitely live long in the memory bank. Favourite Leicestershire cricketer? Plenty to choose from, especially from the cricketing media with the likes of broadcasters Jonathan Agnew, James Taylor and Charlie Dagnall all having enjoyed stints with the Foxes, but I think my favourite Leicestershire player has to be Jeremy Snape and the impact he had for the club in 2004 when they won the ECB Twenty20 Cup.

47 47 SECTION TWO ESSENTIAL MEDIA INFORMATION Grace Road Leicestershire Cricket Ground Company bought 16 acres of land from the Duke of Rutland in 1877 and spent a massive sum of 40,000 on developing a cricket club, athletic track and hotel. The first match was played here on 22 April 1878 and three months later the venue staged a game against the touring Australians. In 1898, Leicestershire beat the Australians. In 1901, the county decided that the ground was too far from the town centre to be economically viable, and they switched to the more central Aylestone Road. They moved out in the war and never returned, instead reverting to Grace Road in 1946, but as tenants of the City Boys Grammar School who by then owned the land. Leicestershire reacquired the ground in 1966 and throughout the 1970s and 1980s the venue was improved so much so that it was awarded two ODIs during the 1999 World Cup. The record attendance was not then, however, but the 16,000 who watched the match against the touring 1948 Australians. Three One Day Internationals have been played at Grace Road, although none have involved England. In the 1983 Cricket World Cup, eventual winners India beat Zimbabwe, chasing a target of 156 to win by 5 wickets. The second and third games were both in the 1999 World Cup. In the second Zimbabwe beat India by three runs and in the third the West Indies beat Scotland by eight wickets.

50 50 SECTION TWO ESSENTIAL MEDIA INFORMATION MY CITY GUIDE LONDON Charlotte Edwards Former England captain Charlotte led her country to ICC World Twenty20 glory in 2009 at the Home of Cricket Which are the best places to eat? I m a big fan of Carluccio s on St John s Wood high street, but there are also some really nice pubs around Primrose Hill.When I m playing at Lord s, I love to have a walk around that area. When I go out to eat, I like to have something I wouldn t make myself at home, so when I m at Carluccio s I tend to go for the seafood pasta. What are the things to do and see away from the cricket? Lord s is in a great place because it is so close to the centre of London, so I often used to take a trip to the shops on Oxford Street or Carnaby Street. It s nice to go shopping for clothes that aren t tracksuits or trainers! I also like food, so Borough Market is always a good choice. Which is your favourite part of town? That would have to be Covent Garden, I really like it around that area. There is always so much going on, I love watching the entertainment. There is always something happening, and there are some really good pubs. Which are the best places to shop? I love London because there are so many independent shops that you wouldn t find in any other city in the country. Shops are always that little bit cooler in London, but then even if you go into the big shops, they always have more in than in other cities! I much prefer going shopping in the centre, rather than one of the big shopping centres. What is your fondest personal playing memory of the ground? Winning the ICC Women s World Twenty20 at Lord s is without a doubt my favourite memory. It was surreal to lift the trophy at Lord s, it s what dreams are made of. It is very much a blur but a memory I ll treasure forever. Also, captaining the MCC there in 2014 against the Rest of the World team, that was a really a brilliant game and very special to me. Who is your favourite ever England cricketer? I played with bowler Clare Taylor MBE at the 1993 Women s World Cup and I spent a lot of my early days with her. She was the ultimate professional to me and I feel very privileged to have played with her. She played football for England and then cricket, and she carried on playing until she was 40. She gave everything on the field and was someone I really looked up to.

51 51 SECTION TWO ESSENTIAL MEDIA INFORMATION LORD S The current Lord s Cricket Ground is in its third incarnation and in 2014 celebrated its 200th anniversary. The first ever match played at Lord s Cricket Ground was in 1787, when businessman Thomas Lord staged a game between Middlesex and Essex at a newly built ground in what was then known as Dorset Fields. By 1811, MCC had moved to a new ground in the Eyre Estate of St John s Wood. This ground proved unpopular but when plans emerged for the Regent s Canal to be built straight through it, Thomas Lord gratefully accepted compensation and moved the ground to its current location in In 2016, Lord s retained its status among players and supporters from around the world as the spiritual Home of Cricket.

53 53 SECTION TWO ESSENTIAL MEDIA INFORMATION TOWN INFORMATION TAUNTON Taunton is a town in the South West of England with an estimated population of around 65,000 people. Located in the county of Somerset, it is surrounded by a beautiful countryside which includes Glastonbury. The River Tone flows through the centre of Taunton and is overlooked by French Weir Park. Taunton has three churches: St James s, St George s and St Mary s. The towers of all three can be seen from the cricket ground, as well as the Quantock Hills. The town lies at the heart of one of the most diverse foodproducing regions in the UK.

54 54 SECTION TWO ESSENTIAL MEDIA INFORMATION MY TOWN GUIDE TAUNTON Anya Shrubsole England women s vice-captain Anya Shrubsole, is a Somerset stalwart Which are the best places to eat? Without question, The Wickets serves the best sandwiches in Taunton. And it is only a two-minute walk from the Ground on St James Street, so make sure you check it out. The bacon butties are particularly well regarded! What are the things to do and see away from the cricket? The South-West has a rich portfolio of things to do to keep you entertained when there isn t any cricket on. Just up the road from Taunton, the world famous Glastonbury music festival will take place during the opening weekend of the ICC Women s World Cup this summer. If you aren t lucky enough to have a ticket to watch the Foo Fighters headline Glastonbury, Wells Cathedral is just a bit further north, and offers an interesting day trip. Or why not head to my home stomping ground, Bath, and try out the world famous Thermae Bath Spa. Which is your favourite part of town? The County Ground is the main place in Taunton to watch professional live sport, so the fans are always passionate, knowledgeable and loyal. I absolutely love playing there, so the ground itself is probably my favourite part of the town. As a spectator as well, I ve watched loads of Somerset men s T20 matches from the stands, and the atmosphere is always brilliant! Which are the best places to shop? The town centre has a thriving high street of shops with all the usual offerings, but if you are after a bargain or two, head to Clarks Village in Street, which is about a 40-minute drive out of Taunton. What is your fondest personal playing memory of the ground? We ve had some great performances as an England team down in Taunton in recent times, and the ground is certainly turning into a bit of a fortress for us. For me though, the match that stands out is a county clash between Somerset and Surrey when I took seven wickets and executed two run-outs. That was a god day! Who is your favourite Somerset cricketer? Easy, Marcus Trescothick is an absolute Somerset legend! He made his first-class debut for the club back in 1993 and is still churning out the runs and leading from the front now.

144 144 SECTION EIGHT ICC EVENTS AND INITIATIVES ICC INITIATIVES Cricket for Good and #OneDay4Children This summer, all activities of Cricket for Good, the ICC s global community outreach programme, will be under the umbrella of #OneDay4Children. #OneDay4Children links the one-day format of both the ICC Champions Trophy and ICC Women s World Cup and UNICEF s work for children through an aspirational message and the ability of people to donate, share and raise awareness for children in danger. The Cricket For Good and UNICEF partnership is using the extraordinary power and reach of cricket to help transform children s lives around the world, so that one day every child will be free from danger. While the world watches the best cricketers and teams compete to win the ICC Champions Trophy and the ICC s Women s World Cup one day tournaments in England this summer, they will also get the chance to see UNICEF s work and gave the chance to support children around the world through #OneDay4Children. Both ODI tournaments will make it #OneDay4Children to remember, so that: One Day every child will have clean water One Day every child will have enough to eat One Day every child will have the chance to play

145 145 SECTION EIGHT ICC EVENTS AND INITIATIVES ICC INITIATIVES Through the #OneDay4Children campaign, Cricket For Good and UNICEF will be looking to utilise their ambassador portfolio to help build awareness and funds for the partnership. Sachin Tendulkar will be at the forefront of the campaign, through special videos and social media messaging. The major fundraising moment for the partnership will be generated via an online competition where fans will make a donation ($10) for the chance to win a meet & greet with Sachin Tendulkar as well as get a pair of tickets to the ICC Champions Trophy 2017 Final. Online and digital platforms as well as stadium communications will be used throughout the two events to help build awareness provide opportunities to donate to make #OneDay4Children. The ICC, UNICEF, the ECB, Chance to Shine, and the Youth Sport Trust are working together to change children s lives for good. A six-week, cricket based curriculum is being created with a focus on the rights of the child and will be distributed to 50 schools that have been selected to take part in the project based on their proximity to the host venue grounds. The curriculum will also be hosted on the ICC website, opening up the opportunity for any school to join in. The curriculum will be promoted to UNICEF UK Rights Respecting schools (circa 4,000), Chance to Shine schools (circa 3,500) and YST schools (circa 4,000). As well as welcoming the teams at every game, Cricket for Good will offer children from schools near all tournament venues a once in a lifetime opportunity to take part in special coaching clinics with the best players in the world.
