got to say i totally agree, im not sure how many people it actually effects really in grassroots cricket, but as someone who's daughter plays, it nice to know that when it should be an only womens changing room it will be,

im quite liberal, i get there are genuine cases of people with body dysmorphia and who go to great lengths to change their gender, but theres equally enough pervs with a kink of invading female space using transgenderism as a guise, and sadly they seem the most vocal and prominent.

not to mention the sheer physical advantage, The fastest ball bowled by a women ever is 82mph, there's village cricketers who can reach those speeds
 
"The female category would be "exclusively for players born female, irrespective of their gender identity""

So what if they identify as male and have been on testosterone for ten years?

I think they would have a doping issue if they were to compete in women’s cricket because the therapeutic use exemption for testosterone wouldn’t apply then so they would be restricted to the open category in practice as well.
 
kind of dont get all the fuss to be honest, be lucky if it actually effects a dozen people, think it was only about 20 when the FA implemented it, imagine its way less in cricket, plus cricket might be the only amateur team sport that has mixed teams at the grass roots level
