Fast bowling all-rounder Hannah Darlington is set to miss the first half of the Women's National Cricket League (WNCL) 2022-23 and Women's Big Bash League (WBBL) 2022 due to a knee injury.
Darlington injured her knee during pre-season training in Canberra while attending the National Leadership Forum, and will undergo surgery on Monday.
She is eying a comeback to active cricket in the second half of the WBBL for Sydney Thunder, which runs until late November.
The bowling all-rounder has played 40 WBBL matches, picking up 51 wickets and accumulating 161 runs in two seasons for the Thunder in 2020-21 and 2021-22.
