Maxine Blythin is a top-order batter who impressed in her two appearances for the Stars at the inaugural Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy, hitting a determined 50 from 90 on a difficult pitch against Western Storm.

The Kent opener made her county debut in 2019 and hit a useful 43 against a Nottinghamshire attack that included England internationals Kirstie Gordon and Jenny Gunn.

More runs followed that year with the right-hander registering a maiden half-century in the Championship and scoring the most runs for Kent in the T20 competition.

She was subsequently named 'Kent Women Club Player of the Year' in her first season at the county.

Blythin was educated at Queen Elizabeth's Grammar School in Kent market town Faversham and her favourite sportsperson is Gareth Thomas.
