 Five women cricketers are the first    
 females to bj invited to join the      
 Marylibonj Cricket Club, based at the  
 historic home of the game — Lord's.    
                                        
 Lucy Mullins, a PE teacher at Taunton  
 School, is one of the five. The MCC    
 declined to name the others. She said: 
 "I am absolutely thrilled."            
                                        
 The MCC voted last year to scrap a     
 211-year tradition banning women from  
 joining the famous club.
