Tanya Aldred

As a photocopier and teagirl, Tanya Aldred joined Wisden Cricket Monthly in 1997 and stayed long enough to see Andrew Flintoff's first Test century. She has covered cricket in Zimbabwe, South Africa, Sri Lanka, Australia and India and now freelances, mostly for The Guardian, writing about all sorts of sports. She lives a short walk from Old Trafford with her husband and baby daughter.
