One week before Covid-19 suspended world sport, the Australian Women’s Cricket Team produced something remarkable. THE RECORD tells the story of the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup. It follows the heroic exploits on the field, and the equally daring off-field campaign to “fill the MCG” for the final on International Women’s Day 2020. If the stadium sells out, a new world record for attendance at a women’s sporting event will be set. This audacious plan relies solely on Australia getting through to the final. But, out-of-form players, injuries, a wild storm, the heavy burden of favouritism and fierce competition, threaten to end Australia’s campaign, and with it, hopes of a new world record. Led fearlessly by captain Meg Lanning, a physically and mentally wounded Australia embark upon a miraculous recovery – all the way to the bright lights of the MCG. With unprecedented access, THE RECORD goes inside the most dramatic World Cup in history - and gives voice to the players who belong on this stage.
