Blinkhorn-Jones, 21, is a right-hander who came through Surrey’s academy and played in the old regional set-up for elite women’s domestic cricket between 2022 and 2024.

She hit centuries in both the 2023 and 2024 Women’s London Championship, including a masterful 125 from 129 balls in the latter season to lead her side to a nail-biting one-wicket win over Kent.

Blinkhorn-Jones’ top score for South East Stars is 77, hit when she was aged just 19 against a Central Sparks attack that included four England players.
