T20 squad will make competitive debut this weekend
The formation of a women's international cricket team on the Isle of Man has been described as a 'landmark moment'.
The Island's first ever women's T20 squad will make its competitive debut in Spain this weekend from the 11-14 November.
They'll face four other nations at the T20i multi-nation tournament at Desert Springs.
The Manx team's captain, Clare Crowe, says the women and girl's game locally has steadily grown in recent times:
