Wyatt-Hodge is already a World Cup winner with England and has played in the Big Bash League in Australia, as well as in packed stadiums at the Women’s Premier League in India.<\/p>\n

She represents Southern Brave in the Hundred and has enjoyed a stellar first season with Surrey, having signed a new contract<\/a> earlier this month.<\/p>\n

Her side go into Sunday’s finals day as favourites, taking their place directly in the final after topping the group stage by 10 points.<\/p>\n

They will face the winner of The Blaze and Bears Women, who face each other in the semi-final, and Wyatt-Hodge is keen to finish the job on home turf.<\/p>\n

“It’s an honour to play for Surrey and I just really hope we get the job done after a really successful campaign, everyone has turned up at some point at the tournament and that shows the squad depth,” she said.<\/p>\n

“It’s been amazing to play in the double-headers with the boys at some of the best grounds in the country.<\/p>\n

“For me, playing at The Oval as a batter is a dream. It’s so flat and the outfield is so quick.<\/p>\n

“The standard of cricket has been so good. I’ve been around for a long time now and I’ve seen the standard of women’s cricket go through the roof, which is amazing.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Wyatt-Hodge is already a World Cup winner with England and has played in the Big Bash League in…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":22914,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[564],"tags":[64,63,740,85],"class_list":["post-22913","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-cricket","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-cricket","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22913","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=22913"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/22913\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/22914"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=22913"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=22913"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=22913"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
