former England cricketer<\/span><\/figcaption><span class=\"&quot;im-image-caption&quot;\"> <i>Getty<\/i><\/span><\/div>\n<p>Guha first rose to fame as a prominent cricket player \u2013 turning out for Thames Valley and Berkshire at domestic level and representing the England national team in Test matches, One Day Internationals and Twenty20 Internationals, making her the first woman of Indian heritage to play for England.<\/p>\n<p>She played as a right-arm fast-medium bowler and was part of the World Cup-winning squads in both 2005 and 2009, before announcing her retirement from international cricket in 2012.<\/p>\n<p>Career highlights include being named the BBC Asian Network Sports Personality of the Year in 2002, taking five for 14\u00a0 against the West Indies in a 2008 ODI, and a career-best five for 40 in a Test match against Australia the same year.<\/p>\n<p>She made her punditry debut while still an active player \u2013 playing a part in ITV\u2019s Indian Premier League coverage in 2012 \u2013 and has gone on to become a prominent presenter and commentator, working for Sky Sports, Fox Cricket and other international broadcasters.<\/p>\n<p>She became the lead presenter and commentator of BBC\u2019s cricket coverage in 2020 and her success in that field is now seeing her branch out into other sports, with her Wimbledon presenting stint set to be followed by Commonwealth Games coverage later in the summer.<\/p>\n<p>And there\u2019s also another connection to Sue Barker \u2013 with Guha having made an appearance of A Question of Sport, albeit after Barker had stepped down as host.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If you\u2019re looking for something else to watch, check out our\u00a0<a href=\"&quot;https:\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/tv-listings\/&quot;\"
