Read our privacy policy Heather Knight was non-committal about overseeing England’s next crack at Australia in the 2025 Women’s Ashes, admitting she is “consciously” focusing on the here and now. “Ashes series are amazing to be involved in, I love playing Ashes cricket, so we’ll see.” The recently-concluded series was held at major venues in England and attracted around 110,000 people across seven matches, pushing the women’s game into the public’s consciousness like never before. Knight believes the unprecedented success of this summer’s Ashes, which ran concurrently to the men’s series, owes a debt of gratitude to The Hundred, which will start its third edition on Tuesday. I actually think The Hundred has been a big part of what happened in the Ashes this summer Heather Knight “I certainly noticed loads more young girls at our games, knowing everything about the game which is pretty awesome to see.” The Spirit begin their campaign at Lord’s against London rivals Oval Invincibles in a men’s and women’sdouble header on Wednesday, with Knight returning after missing last year’s competition through injury.
