Sophie Ecclestone

Such a feature of the England Women’s team for so many years it’s easy to forget that Sophie Ecclestone is still only 27 years old. She would have been a part of the 2017 World Cup squad had it not been for her school exams getting in the way, but not much has proved an obstacle to her since as she’s forged a reputation as one of the best bowlers in the world. Tall, able to vary her pace and with a repeatable action, she’s able to beat batters on both edges and is very often England’s go-to bowler. Capable of hitting a very long ball.
