It's Thursday evening in Herat Province, Afghanistan, August 2021.

Tuber is at home when she hears something outside that makes her blood run cold.

I heard lots of the young sound.

I asked my mom, mom, what's happened?

Gun sounds, people yelling, chaos.

There's a lot of commotion outside.

She told me, Tuber, the Taliban, take the Herat Province.

Everything is under dear control. Herat is gone.

Herat is a major Afghan city, the third largest in the country.

Tuber can't believe that it's all just gone, fallen into the hands of the Taliban.

I say, what's wrong? It's impossible.

We have lots of police officers, we have an army, we have everything.

How it's possible.

Tuber runs to her room and messages her friends.

I sent a two voice message in WhatsApp group and I was crying on that voice message.

I said, Herat is gone, they are going to take cover.

Everything is done, girls, we are done.

Our dream is like everything is finished.

Eventually, Tuber goes to bed.

In the morning when I woke up Friday morning,

you know, the war looks like nothing, nothing live.

Tuber's life is never going to be the same again.

Under Taliban rule, women's rights will be decimated.

Education, gone.

The career she had pictured for herself, never going to happen.

But that's not what Tuber is thinking about as the chaos consumes Herat.

She's thinking about cricket.

What does all this mean for the Afghan women's cricket team?

She goes downstairs to where she keeps all her cricket stuff.

I just said and say, I'm not going to use them again.

I hold my bat and I was crying on that time.

What Tuber doesn't know is that someone, a complete stranger,

a whole continent away, is following her story.

And we'll set up a rescue operation that will span continents

and change lives forever.

Turning Tuber from a national cricket player to an international cricket star.

I'm Anderson Field and from the teams at Novel and I HeartPodcast.

This is The Girlfriends Spotlight, where we tell stories of women winning.

Today, Tuber stumps the Taliban.

To understand, just how much Tuber Soari lost that night, the Taliban took over.

I want to tell you about the rich, fulfilling life she once had in Herat.

Specifically, the moment Tuber first discovered the sport that would change her life.

I was interested to follow some sport like I play basketball and football for my school.

I love the challenge things.

I'm always focusing on something that it's challenge for me.

Tuber's in her mid-teens in a mass class, when a woman comes into her classroom.

She asks, who wants to play cricket?

I was, what? What she is talking about?

Let's click it.

Because on that time, cricket wasn't that famous in Afghanistan.

Then, after she said, who wants to play cricket?

Without, I had any idea about cricket.

Oh, I would like to play cricket.

Tuber isn't joking when she says she loves the challenge.

She has no idea what cricket is.

But she signs up anyway.

When I came to home, I did lots of research.

And I found it really interested.

It was completely something different and new.

Tuber falls in love with this complex strategic game.

Cricket is kind of like the sport version of a Rubik's Cube.

It's confusing, intricate, and strangely addictive.

Matches can go on for five days and still end up in a draw.

And believe it or not, those can genuinely be the most exciting games you'll ever see.

The fastest bowlers can deliver the ball at speeds up to 100 miles per hour.

And of course, every afternoon, all the players put down their bats and stop for tea.

It's a game played with a bat and ball, but trust me, it's nothing like baseball.

Tuber is hurt.

Cricket was changing my life.

And I can find any words to explain how much cricket is important.

How much I feel happy when I hold the ball, when I hold the bat.

It's gave me to forget all my sadness, all the pressure,

the pressure to think that I've seen from other players or from life.

Cricket made my life.

When Tuber is waiting through the treacle of teenage girlhood, cricket is there for her.

For all the problems, when I'm going to the field, when I do bowling or batting,

when even I hold the ball, even I watch any cricket game on TV,

every life has challenges, pressure from a study board.

But you need to find something that helps you to forget something.

But cricket is like that for me.

Tuber is all in. She has become a cricket nerd.

After two three training, then I was selected as a captain for this school.

I was so happy and feeling to take a lead.

Do you remember the first game that you played as captain of that school team?

Do you remember what it was like?

I was very seriously made a plan for my team.

And I say, just push my team.

Yes, we need to do this. We need to do this.

We need a baller, a ball on the line, no extra runs.

Try to have a good performance.

I was so happy, you know what?

Like, I was trying my best.

After the match, Tuber rushes home to tell her parents.

I say, mom, you know, I'm the captain. I'm the boss.

Like, actually, I'm a boss.

Yeah.

My mom laughing on me.

Like, that was so funny.

Her mom is delighted, but she has a warning for Tuber.

Then my mom told me like, I don't want my daughter from this time

that it's like maybe it's a big responsibility for her,

but it's her first step in her life.

I don't want she act like she is someone very important.

She just sending me a lesson.

Never feel like you're better than Anima.

No, you're not.

It sounds like you're a very natural leader,

but your mom was being a classic mom.

In the UK would say, making sure that you don't get too big for your boots.

Don't think it's too important.

Exactly.

Good words for this and good describing.

Yeah, I always grateful for my mom because of her experience

that she was always sharing with me and helped me.

And Tuber's parents are super supportive.

Afghanistan has had a turbulent history with women's access to sports.

Tuber certainly wouldn't have been able to play cricket at school

when the Taliban had ruled for the first time during the 1990s.

Heck, she probably wouldn't have even been at school.

But by the time Tuber first picks up a cricket bat in 2015,

that's all in the past.

The country's changed a lot.

And Tuber is making the most of it,

which is when the Afghanistan cricket board make an announcement.

They say we are going to invite some of the good players

from each province to attend the camp in Kabul for 18 days.

Six players they selected from Herod, which is my city.

We went to Kabul.

We had a coach in 18 days comes with other girls from different city.

So for nearly three weeks, Tuber and these other girls are playing cricket all day, every day.

Afghanistan is made up of a number of different ethnic groups.

So some of these girls don't even share the same language.

But cricket becomes their connection.

It feels amazing when we are playing together.

And the people that we are not in same culture, not in same religion, not in same language,

we are still supporting each other.

We are going in the field like we are a family member.

That's why they say cricket or any sport brings people together.

This camp is utopic.

A woman's cricket utopia.

Where young women from all over the country come together to knock down wickets.

And also just be girls.

Do you remember any special moment in particular from the cricket camp?

Is there a moment that stands out in your memory?

Each single day that or single minutes that I or my teammate spend in cricket camp,

it was the fantastic and amazing time for all of us.

Because it was the first time we came together.

We played together when we came in the afternoon from the cricket practice.

We divided who was to dishes, who must cook.

And we had just one bathroom in the morning when we need to be ready at 7 or 8 o'clock in the morning.

I had one team meet.

She woke up at 5 o'clock to get the train for the stay on the line for the bathroom to be ready for the cricket training.

And we had one player.

She was so fun of the makeup.

When she came from the cricket practice,

she started to make up herself.

She put lines, I don't know, foundations.

I have, like, I don't have more information about the makeup.

Oh my god, what are you doing?

As much I love in cricket, but she had in me.

It's great to find your passion, whatever that is.

Three days before the camp ends, the coaches make a very big announcement.

They're reading out the names of players to be part of Afghanistan's national team.

And second or third person, they read my name, Tuba.

Oh my god.

Am I selected for the national team?

I was so happy.

They say you're selected as a member of the national cricket team.

When I came back to head-out province,

I said, Mom, do you know what?

Is she thought that we are going to just for practice?

Then I said, Mom, I'm one of the players that I selected to play for Afghanistan.

She was so happy.

She hugged me and said, I'm really proud of you.

I never imagined that one day my daughter in this situation that Afghanistan has

selected or played or represented Afghanistan.

But the celebration doesn't last long.

While her parents are bursting with pride,

the extended family has a very different reaction.

Oh, my relatives say like in bad way,

in negative comment to my dad.

That's no noise of the girls to do this.

But my mom and my dad was the only people in my life.

They say, my daughter, don't worry about people.

My parents, they are the only people they always encourage me.

They always support me.

Despite some criticism,

Tuba's dreams are coming true.

She's representing her country,

playing the sport she loves,

surrounded by her cricket sisters.

Cricket becomes her world,

training, matches, dreams of a tournament,

a normal life for a young athlete.

Until that Friday evening in August 2021,

when everything changes forever.

After the break, the Taliban retakes Afghanistan

and Tuba's world collapses.

In August 2021, the Taliban make a sweeping return across Afghanistan.

And in a lightning bolt offensive, start taking one city after another.

Tuba's hometown of Harat falls.

Soon after, the Taliban take the capital, Kabul, and the entire country is theirs.

When the Taliban took over Afghanistan, the first city that they took was my city.

Harat province.

The place that I born.

I mean, it sounds just heartbreaking.

The idea of you looking at your cricket bat and just crying thinking,

I'm not going to use you anymore.

When my brother went to outside, he came to home and he said,

the Taliban, they are looking for those people that they had any sport.

When I heard that, I just hide all my cricket equipment.

The Taliban don't just oppose women's sports.

They systematically erase women from public life entirely.

Under their rule, girls can't go to school or university.

Women are banned from most jobs and are even prohibited from parks and gyms.

Being caught playing cricket could mean imprisonment, beatings or worse.

And now, they're actively looking for women who are involved in sports, education, or government work.

Tuba's room is full of certificates marking her achievements, evidence of a life that's now dangerous to have lived.

Because I was scared, maybe they find, when they find out that I was that much active,

then they are not going to leave me.

And when the country's government collapses, the Afghanistan cricket board,

the organization that gave these women contracts and dreams, seems to have simply abandoned them.

For months, Tuba and her teammates are trapped.

Their dreams are dead, their futures uncertain, their safety constantly at risk.

They've lost almost all hope.

And when we almost give up for everything, receiving a call from Miss Catherine Ordeway

was like a shiny thing that it's appeared in our life.

And that shiny thing that appeared in their life is Catherine Ordeway, an Australian academic and former cricketer,

who has been following Tuba and her teammate's story.

She said that I know you're in a difficult situation.

And it's very hard for you guys to trust anyone in this situation.

But please trust me.

I want to help you guys.

Just tell me, how is your going?

Tuba can't explain just how awful the situation is.

But she's very clear that they are not okay.

So Catherine Ordeway, alongside a team of Guardian Angels that includes cricket stars and fans, make a plan.

They know that the Taliban have the team members' names, photos, addresses and phone numbers.

The women are in huge danger.

And they can't leave fellow cricketers stranded.

They are going to get Tuba and her teammates out of Afghanistan.

That's called change of life.

They work feverishly and secretively for months, navigating a legal and administrative labyrinth

until they eventually manage to arrange emergency Australian humanitarian visas for Tuba and her teammates.

Then they devise an evacuation route for each of them out of Afghanistan.

By this point, the airports are shut, so you'll have to be overland.

They ask Tuba to leave her parents behind and travel from Harat to Kabul.

Then to the Pakistan border, with nothing but hope that she'll make it safely to the other side.

It was very hard to pass any police station because everything was under the Taliban control.

When I came from Harat to Kabul, Kabul to Turgham, Turgham to Islamabad.

At one point, the Taliban pulled them over.

The Taliban stopped us and asked us where you are going.

They returned their crossing the border to attend a wedding and will come back.

I can't wait one pair of shoes and one pair of dress, nothing else.

Because I didn't want that the Taliban noticed or find out if we take lots of things they think

or they are going to leave Afghanistan.

Every checkpoint is terrifying.

Every police stop could be the end.

It was a long journey and very challenging journey for us.

Every year is soluble and they celebrate that they took Afghanistan.

They are celebrating that, yes, we are empowered now.

We can ban women from everything.

The hardest moment for me when I face them.

You see someone that, because of them, you live everything.

Even you live your dream.

Turgham makes a long car journey across the mountainous border between Afghanistan and Pakistan.

Turgham and her teammates travel separately in different cars and on different days to avoid suspicion.

When we came to Pakistan, we will stay for 14 or 15 days in Pakistan.

And after that we divided in different groups and by the Australian government helping.

We came from Pakistan to Dubai in the 9 o'clock AM in Dubai time.

We came to Melbourne.

This was 2021.

So, Antuba arrives in Australia.

She needs to go into COVID quarantine in a hotel room for two weeks.

It was very hard to stay in one room for 14 days.

But it was better than to stay in Afghanistan for that situation.

Tuba has escaped the Taliban.

But now she is in a foreign country where everything is new.

Far away from her family.

Far away from everything she knows.

Quarantine in a hotel room.

After the break, Tuba refuses to accept that she is all bowled out.

When Tuberlands in Australia, Catherine Ordway and the team that have arranged for her evacuation

are there to meet her.

Tuber's safe, but she's also completely overwhelmed by what she's left behind.

On that time, the main things that we were focused on

is just leave Afghanistan.

Just go somewhere.

We don't want to stay under this regime, under this government, this power.

When I arrived in Australia, on that time, I really felt like, oh, Tuber.

You leave everything behind yourself, you know?

Because I was scared.

She's flown more than 7,000 miles to a place where she hopes she'll be safe.

The weight of it all brings her to tears.

I just entered the room, lie down in the bed,

and put the blanket on my head.

It was so sad moment for me.

Tuber's teammates are scattered across different Australian cities,

some in Melbourne, some in Canberra, some in Sydney.

But they stay connected through WhatsApp groups, like they did back in Afghanistan,

and they meet up when they can.

They come in my place or other my teammates plays and visit each other.

Did your relationships, did they change?

No, nothing gets changed.

We have the same feeling with each other.

You are more than friendly.

Because now we understand each other very well, the challenges that we face together.

For years, the team exists in limbo.

They're grateful to be safe in Australia.

But they're not officially recognized by cricket authorities.

They can play locally, the Guardian Angels, who help them to escape,

also set them up with cricket teams in their areas.

They're no longer the national team, and they can't represent Afghanistan.

Then, in 2024, the Australian cricket community steps in once more.

Not only Catherine, but people like Mel Jones, who's a celebrity former cricketer.

They get Tuber and her fellow teammates to come together and register as a team again.

Their first match is setting January of 2025, organized by the charity,

Cricket Without Borders.

We were together on the field.

And, oh my god, I can't find any words to explain how special it was for us.

How amazing it was for us.

When we were like the, of our cricket uniform, our t-shirt, that saw our name,

and the logo from Afghanistan community and the Australian community.

This emblem on their shirts tells their story perfectly.

Designed by Tuber herself, it features symbols from both Afghanistan and Australia,

intertwined around a cricket ball.

It's a symbol that, yeah, like something related to Afghanistan and Australia.

It feels like we have someone here in Australia that they care about us.

Walking out onto that field feels surreal.

One of my teammates, she asked me things.

She said, am I dreaming?

I said, no, you're not dreaming.

We are on the field. We are going to play with each other.

You know, how much we support each other.

For one round, we're just shouting, oh, good run, good bally,

supporting each other.

It was like a dream to come true.

This moment, standing on a cricket field in Melbourne,

wearing their team colors, playing together again,

it's everything they thought they'd lost forever.

And I noticed how much it's important, how much it's nice to play with your own team,

how much it encourage you, how much it gives you a positive energy to go to field

with your own teammates and represent Afghanistan.

Maybe like our government, they don't accept us to play or represent Afghanistan,

but hold the word, know that we are Afghan women's going to keep playing.

The teams spend a week together in a Melbourne hotel.

And in the morning, we went to for breakfast or dinner.

How much that time is special?

One night, we went to outside and walking in the lake with each other,

with our team meet.

And it was the best moment in our life.

Afterwards, each player goes back to her city where she's resettled.

But they do still get to train together sometimes.

And recently, there's been even more good news.

The International Cricket Council, the ICC,

has announced that they're going to support Tuber and her team

with some professional coaching, training facilities and game plans.

It was so, so meaningful decision that ICC made it for our team.

And we are really appreciate.

After four years, finally, they accept to support us.

And yeah, we are so excited.

And all I want to say, thank you, ICC.

The Tuber, this recognition represents something much bigger than cricket.

It's validation that they never gave up,

that their dream survived even when everything else was taken from them.

And what is your hope for the future for yourself for Afghanistan?

I would like to say for the Afghan women's never give up.

Never give up.

I almost lost my hope.

But my mom told me, Tuber, you are not that person to give up.

Keep your dream alive.

One day, everything will be changed.

I know I completely understand this is the hardest situation for them.

And just we are trying our best to be a good presenter for the Afghan women's for their rights.

We will raise our voice and hopefully, hopefully one day, something change.

And for me, I want to represent my country as much I can.

I just want to show for the world that the Afghan women's they have talent.

They have this capability to play any sport, to achieve whatever they want.

Tuber's family is still in Afghanistan,

but she is pursuing her dreams of playing cricket professionally in Australia.

And the ICC has recently announced they will help Tuber and her teammates play in the international standard stage.

And hopefully, that will pave the way for Tuber to represent her country again.

And represent she does as surely one of cricket's most passionate and endearing ambassadors on or off the field.

Well, I mean, I have to say, Tuber, I have never paid much attention to cricket or thought about watching it or playing it.

But I feel completely inspired.

I feel like you could get anyone interested in the game.

You described it so beautifully.

Everything to be honest, it was from my bottom of my heart.

Thank you so much for this conversation, Tuber, and I cannot wait for your cricket game to be one of the first ones that I ever watch.

I'll be cheering you on.
