Courtney Winfield-Hill to join England coaching team for Women's Ashes

Australian-born Courtney Winfield-Hill will join England's coaching team this winter for the tour of South Africa and Women's Ashes down under.

Winfield-Hill played domestic cricket in Australia before moving to the UK and switching to rugby league, going on to represent England at the 2022 Rugby League World Cup.

Since her retirement she has returned to cricket as a coach, working for England pathways, in the Hundred with Trent Rockets, the Women's Big Bash and the Women's Premier League in India.

She is married to England wicketkeeper-batter Lauren Winfield-Hill, who last played an international in 2022.

"Since working with England teams, I have been made to feel nothing but welcomed and feel the ECB have invested in developing me as a coach," Courtney Winfield-Hill said.
