Surrey Women secure services of World Cup winner Wyatt-Hodge
The 33-year-old has played 278 matches for England since making her debut in 2010 and was part of the England side that lifted the 2017 ICC Cricket World Cup on home soil.
The right-handed batter has scored more than 5,000 international runs across the three formats and she is England’s all-time WIT20 run scorer with 2,979 runs from 164 matches. No England player with more than 300 IT20 runs has scored them at a higher strike rate than Wyatt-Hodge’s 127.85.
Since 2020, Wyatt-Hodge has played regional cricket for the Southern Vipers and for the Southern Brave in The Hundred.
She is currently playing for the Hobart Hurricanes in the Women’s Big Bash League.
Wyatt-Hodge said: “I am both excited and honoured to be joining Surrey. The club has an incredible history with a culture of success, which I want to contribute to.
“I love playing at the Kia Oval and can’t wait to entertain the Surrey supporters.
“The South East Stars’ positive brand of cricket was an important factor in me joining the club and I’m looking forward to getting started.”
Emma Calvert, Surrey’s Director of Women’s Cricket, said: “We are incredibly excited that Danni Wyatt-Hodge has agreed to commit to Surrey for the 2025 season.
“Danni’s career speaks for itself, and we believe she will add strength and depth on the field as well as adding to the team off the field.
“After chatting to Danni it was clear to see that she will be an incredible fit for our new team. The style of cricket she plays is exactly how we want to go about our business.”
