Those two sentences contradict each other. The British cricket fans did stand for Connor. She presented Channel 4's Cricket Show more than that summer, iirc, and has commentated on TMS. I've never heard any complaints from anyone.

And why wouldn't they stand for it? Does having breasts mean you can't talk about a sport just as well as a bloke can?
