Abstract

In CLR James’ Beyond a Boundary he opined: ‘What do they know of cricket who only cricket know?’ One might add: ‘What do they know of cricket who only men’s cricket know?’ This article reviews the current global historical and sociological literature on female participation in cricket, female spectatorship and fandom, and cricketing masculinities, concluding that these subjects are still in their infancy – a fact which should concern all scholars of cricket. I argue that the key problem with current scholarship is that women’s and men’s cricket are examined as separate entities: fully gendering cricket scholarship requires a more integrated approach. Here I offer 3 strategies to achieve this: a restructuring of our work; a more interdisciplinary approach, with historians and sociologists working closely together; and the need to bring intersectionality into the heart of our work, to ensure the experiences of non-white female cricketers are more fully understood.

Maidens and Man-kads:21 世纪的性别化板球奖学金

摘要

在 CLR James 的《超越边界》中,他认为:“只有板球知道的人对板球了解多少?” 有人可能会补充:“他们知道什么板球谁只是男人的板球知道吗?本文回顾了当前关于女性参与板球、女性观众和粉丝以及板球男子气概的全球历史和社会学文献,得出的结论是这些主题仍处于起步阶段——这一事实应该引起所有板球学者的关注。我认为当前奖学金的关键问题在于,女子和男子板球被视为独立的实体:完全性别化的板球奖学金需要更综合的方法。在这里,我提供了实现这一目标的 3 种策略:重组我们的工作;更跨学科的方法,历史学家和社会学家密切合作;以及需要将交叉性纳入我们工作的核心,以确保更充分地了解非白人女子板球运动员的经历。
