Widely considered England's greatest fast bowler, Katherine Brunt is a three-time World Cup winner (50-over: 2009, 2017; T20 2009) with over 300 wickets across all three formats at international level.

Domestically, Brunt has represented Yorkshire, Yorkshire Diamonds and Northern Diamonds on home soil and both Perth Scorchers and Melbourne Stars in Australia's Big Bash.

Due to international commitments, she only made two appearances for Diamonds in 2020 but still emerged with six wickets and an astonishing economy of 2.94.

In 2021, she took a further nine wickets and scored 44 runs in three 50-over appearances as well as representing Trent Rockets in The Hundred. She was one of only five players retained by the franchise for 2022.

Brunt also enjoys property developing and watching UFC and considers winning her first Ashes series in 2005 to be her career highlight.
