Zero to Hero - Nicky Shaw


England Women's cricket team win their World Cup for the third time, while England (men) lose another one-day game in the WIndies.

* 27-year-old Nicky Shaw (kissing the cup above) was initially left out of the side but a calf injury to Jenny Gunn meant she was picked. Her response was sensational as she took career best figures of 4-34 to dismiss New Zealand for 166 before cracking a nerveless 17 not out to haul England to World Cup glory.
