Well I was really more of a spectator in this World Cup, having played just threematches. Most of my time was spent watching the matches, which were 60 overs. Teamswould score around 160 or so, which was enough back then. My approach was a lotmore aggressive and it was frustrating watching from the stands. But we had reallygood players, so honestly I wasn’t good enough to play.Most of my memories from the tournament are, sadly, off-field ones. We went sightseeing in London and listened to a lot of music – 4 Non Blondes were big in England then. Otherwise we spent a lot of time travelling to venues – hour-and-a-half from where we were based, in Reading – and caught up on sleep in the bus.I spent most of my time bowling in the nets to our batsmen, but itcouldn’t have been very good since we came third in the round-robin!The World Cup was memorable in that I made my one-day debut there, after being dropped for a year following my Test debut. Did I get any words of advice from my captain beforemy first game? Well Lyn Larsen’s nickname was “Whisper:, so if she said something, Icertainly didn’t hear it!
