Delhi: Star all-rounder Net Skivor-Brant has been appointed as the new captain of the England women’s cricket team. This decision has been taken after the removal of Heather Knight from captaincy, whose team was out due to extremely poor performance in the T20 World Cup and 2024/25 Ashes.

Net Skiver-Bunt, who plays for Mumbai Indians in the Women’s Premier League (WPL), is currently on maternity leave. In March, his wife and former England fast bowler Catherine Skver-Bunt gave birth to a son, named Theodore. NET will now return to England from the Domestic Series against the West Indies and India.

So far, Scivor-Bunt has played 259 international matches for England. He has scored 883 runs in Tests, 3811 runs in ODIs and 2789 runs in T20 International. He is a batter scoring runs at an average of above 45 in both Tests and ODIs. She has also been impressive in bowling, she has taken a total of 181 international wickets and has a bowling average of 21.13 in T20.

On its new role, Skver-Bunt said, “It is a matter of pride for me to be the captain of the England women’s team. It is an honor to get this responsibility with inspiring personality like Charlotte. It is only after my debut in 2013-I have only one goal-I will help the team all possible.
