England all-rounder Nat Sciver-Brunt has been named Women’s Cricketer of the Year by the International Cricket Council for the second year in a row.
The 31-year-old was England’s player of the series in the drawn 2023 Ashes contest and their leading run-scorer at the T20 World Cup last February.
She scored three centuries in five one-day international knocks in 2023, including two against Australia.
“It feels pretty special. I wasn’t expecting it,” Sciver-Brunt said.

Sciver-Brunt, who beat Sri Lanka’s Chamari Athapaththu, and Australia pair Ash Gardner and Beth Mooney to the award, also scored well in her two Tests in 2023 – 78 against Australia and 59 in the defeat by India in December.
