Speaking on the announcement of the squad, Head Coach, Alexia Walker said: "It is an exciting time with the new structure and the new setup, we are really excited to get going.

The most important thing is that the girls feel more prepared and more supported than ever from myself and the club.

"The growth of the Women's game over the last five years has just been insane, so for the club to really embrace that journey, to be playing double-headers, playing at Lord's in the T20's has made the girls extremely excited and motivated, but more importantly, hopefully the crowds and new fans will come into the game and support the team."

Sussex Sharks captain, Chiara Green spoke of her high hopes for the team this season: "As a squad we are really excited for the coming season, it will be great to be more integrated with the club with our home games now being at Hove.

We hope this will bring a new audience to the game and are looking forward to meeting many supporters and Members over the Summer.

"We are extremely lucky to have some great grounds to play at and I know we’re all especially looking forward to the doubleheader fixture at Lords!

"I believe we have a really talented squad, with a few new faces and I am positive this summer with be a very successful one for all the girls and Sussex Cricket!"
