Decorated Australian cricketer Meg Lanning has revealed her dangerous obsession with over-training and dieting put her health at risk and ultimately led to her retiring from international cricket aged just 32.

Speaking on the Howie Games podcast , Lanning opened up about constantly 'over exercising and under fuelling' while representing her country.
