SUMMARY
SUMMARY
-Meg Lanning's inspiration, quite unsurprisingly, is Ricky Ponting
-Lanning always was so good with the studies
-She played for her school boy's team (during her 7th grade) and was the only girl to do that
-Made her debut at the age of 18, won 3 World Cups in her first 4 years of intl cricket
-Lanning, aged 21, became the youngest Australian captain in 2014
-After 2017 WC semi-final exit, Lanning suffered a shoulder injury
-The injury kept her out of action for nearly 8 months
-Post her return, Lanning said she felt like an outsider in her own team
-Reason? Lanning never got dropped since her debut and lacked the perspective of an outsider
-That experience taught her being empathetic towards her team-mates and improved conversations
-Lanning doesn't believe in planning too much ahead of the game
-After winning gold in CWG (August 2022), Lanning took indefinite break from cricket
-The break helped her reset goals and feel normal after all the incredible highs
-World Cup wins under Lanning's captaincy (2018, 2020, 2023 - T20, 2022 - ODI)
