Meanwhile, Dean was with the Spirit in the inaugural edition of The Hundred, where she bagged six wickets. While she was the second-highest wicket-taker in the Charlotte Edwards Cup earlier this summer.
After impressing Knight in The Hundred 2021, the off-break bowler got a national call-up in September 2021, and since then she has been a regular feature for the England women's team.
