England batter Wyatt-Hodge makes Surrey move

Record-breaking England batter Danni Wyatt-Hodge has signed for Surrey’s new professional women’s team.

The 33-year-old has played 278 matches for England since her international debut, aged 19, in 2010, and was part of the team that won the World Cup in 2017.

She is England’s all-time leading T20 women’s international run-scorer, having overtaken Charlotte Edwards in 2024.

Wyatt-Hodge joins a Surrey team who are part of the new structure in women’s domestic cricket with eight counties hosting professional teams in 2025.

I love playing at the Kia Oval and can’t wait to entertain the Surrey supporters,” Wyatt-Hodge said.

“The South East Stars’ positive brand of cricket was an important factor in joining the club,” she added, in reference to the team who formerly played at The Oval in the previous domestic structure.

Wyatt-Hodge has spent the past seven years with Hampshire-based Southern Vipers and helped them win five trophies in the past five seasons.

She has represented Nottinghamshire, Sussex, Lancashire Thunder, Vipers and Hundred franchise Southern Brave in various domestic competitions
