Derbyshire Women vs Sharks

29 Aug 2025

Alexia Walker's Sharks head to The County Ground in Derby on Saturday to conclude not only their One Day Cup campaign, but their season as a whole.

And, on reflection, it's been an impressive year for this young squad that will only improve. The Sharks head up to Derbyshire looking to end 2025 on an even greater high.

Team News

Walker has announced a 13-player squad for the fixture at Derby, with Mollie Adams and Lottie Curling returning after their participation in the recent Super 4s competition. 

Squad: Adams (wk), Buckle, Collis, Curling, Gentry, Green (c), Harman, King, Lee, Lewis, Mullan, Stanley, Wilkinson

The Opposition 

It's been a difficult season for Derbyshire Women, who are still in search of a first win in the Metro Bank One Day Cup League Two. Despite these defeats, they can be buoyed by the batting of Ellie Nightingale and Megan Pittman, who have scored 78 and 50 respectively in the past couple of weeks. 

And with the ball Pagan Hardwick looked in fine form for her two wickets as the hosts look to end their 2025 on a positive note, too. 

Tickets 

Entry is FREE for the game, though the Monarch Security Pavilion will be closed to spectators.

Timings

The first ball will be bowled at 10.30am, with gates open 60 minutes beforehand.
