From Kolkata to the Ashes

Having helped England's women side retain the Ashes, Kolkata-born Isa Guha speaks to the Telegraph's Amit Roy about her Indian connection.

Asked whether Isa was English or Bengali, her father Barun thought for a moment before replying: “She is 75 per cent English, 25 per cent Bengali. She cannot speak Bengali but she understands Bengali. She loves to come to Calcutta, and meet all her relations. May be the next trip will be at Christmas.”
