Sophia Dunkley became the first girl to play first XI cricket for Mill Hill School and continued making history all the way to the England team.
At Birmingham 2022, Dunkley continued in her new role of opening, making 64 runs across the tournament as England reached the bronze medal match before losing to New Zealand.
The 24-year-old made her Test debut in 2021 and in doing so became the first black woman to play Test cricket for England, before appearing in the final of the inaugural women's Hundred.
She has since cemented her place in the middle order playing in her first Ashes tournament in January before making her World Cup debut as England reached the final in New Zealand.
