To mark International Women鈥檚 Day 2017, we hear a snapshot of women鈥檚 lives around the world as they tell us what's on their minds. Quadriplegic, Preethi is 36-years-old and from the Tamil Nadu province of India. She used to be a successful cricketer in her youth until an accident transformed her life.
