About

Started commentating on women's Regional Centre of Excellence cricket livestreams in 2019 at Edgbaston which was then "behind closed doors" due to COVID.

Since working for Central Sparks at Edgbaston and Worcestershire County Cricket Ground, New Road (also broadcast on BBC local radio), I have also commentated for North West Thunder at Chester Boughton Hall and for Lightning at Loughborough University's Hazelgrave ground

In 2021 I gave my commentary from Edgbaston from the Test Match Special box
