Kate Cross
England international cricketer and Heywood Cricket Club’s Kate Cross is playing in a roses match between Lancashire Thunder and Yorkshire Diamonds at Old Trafford cricket ground on Friday (12 August).
The match is part of the Kia Super League Twenty-20 tournament, which began late last month, with Cross being one of several professional players from England and overseas that were allocated to one of the six competing teams earlier this year.
Cross plays for her Heywood as well as Lancashire Thunder, who currently sit fifth in the tournament table having beaten Loughborough Lightning but lost to Western Storm, Southern Vipers and Surrey Stars.
Cross is one of the 18 female players that are centrally contracted to ECB on professional terms.
The clash against the Yorkshire Diamonds, who have lost all three of their matches in the tournament so far, is likely to be Lancashire’s last outing of the tournament.
They will need a bonus point victory against Yorkshire and an unlikely set of results from elsewhere to reach the finals day at the Essex County Ground, Chelmsford on 21 August.
