After joining the Bears in 2020, Eve’s career has skyrocketed, having won numerous awards and is one of the best performers in the women’s game.

Born in Shrewsbury, she began playing cricket for Shropshire and then Staffordshire, as well as Whitchurch CC. In the inaugural Kia Super League in 2016, she enjoyed success at Loughborough Lightning, before making the move to Lancashire Thunder in 2017 for both KSL and domestic cricket.

Here Eve’s career began to flourish, becoming leading run-scorer when Lancashire won the double.

In 2020 became one of the professionals in the women’s game for Central Sparks, who she captains and was highest scorer in both their 2020 and 2021 seasons.

Following on from this, she was one of the highest scorers in The Hundred, playing for Birmingham Phoenix and as a result picked up the 2021 PCA Women’s Player of the Year.

After earning herself a call up to the England A side tour to Australia and a gig with the Melbourne Renegades in the Big Bash, she continues to impress in every match she plays and backed this up for the Bears, top scoring with 66.
