  1. Alex Hartley
    England spinner and World Cup winner

    She has the most brilliant googly, and she hides it very, very well.

  3. Time for a bit of spin...

  4. Anya Shrubsole is England's all-time leading wicket-taker in T20 cricket, and she's third on the international list, behind Ellyse Perry and Anisa Mohammed.

    She claimed eight wickets in the most recent World T20 at an average of 10.62.

    Anya's success has come from her ability to swing the ball into right-handers, but she has developed her game in the last three years with all the variations.

  7. And now we get into the rest of the bowlers.

    Here's a team from one of our readers, Martyn Thompson. Perry at seven? Now that's a deep batting line-up!

    Team.

    Passion and power. Brunty is a win-at-all-cost type of teammate and one you want as part of your dressing room and not theirs. Her longevity is a testament to her fitness and ability to want to improve, too. She bowled one of the best back-of-the-hand slower balls I’ve ever seen to get Meg Lanning out at Leicester.

  10. Katherine Brunt was player of the match when England won their first - and to date, their only - T20 world title at Lord's in 2009.

    She took 3-6 from her four overs and she's still going strong today.

    Brunty - an aggressive player on the pitch but one of the softest off it!

  13. Time for a bit of Barnsley anger at seven.

    It's not me, sadly. My hopes of an international cricket career came to an end many years ago, when I realised I was useless at batting, bowling and fielding.

    Taylor starts her innings slow but once she is in is one of the most destructive batters in the world. She can clear boundaries of any size.

  15. Skipper Taylor was the player of the tournament when West Indies lifted the T20 trophy in 2016.

    She scored more runs than any other player - 246 - as she led her side to their first global title.

    Staf is another hard-hitting player and knows how to control her innings perfectly. You have to get her out early or she has the ability to chase anything down.

  18. At six, you usually want a big hitter who can also bowl a couple of handy overs...

    Nat is England’s hardest-hitting player and my least favourite to bowl at in the nets. She can play her front-foot game on the back foot, which makes her incredibly different to bowl at and set a field to.

  20. Possibly England's most improved player, Nat Sciver is mostly known for her T20 batting over her bowling.

    She was England's stand-out player in Australia, for my money.
