Alice Capsey Expected to Reach New Heights in 2026

According to Nasser Hussain, Alice Capsey is poised to achieve unprecedented success in women's cricket in 2026, having come to terms with her remarkable talent. With 34 ODI and 45 T20I appearances for England, Capsey has established herself as a versatile player in international and franchise cricket. Hussain believes that Capsey's realization of her abilities could be the catalyst for her to reach new heights. "The penny has dropped" for the 21-year-old, says Hussain, who thinks Capsey is now understanding her true potential. Meanwhile, Michael Atherton tips 19-year-old Davina Perrin to have a standout season, following her impressive performance in The Hundred last year. With the T20 World Cup taking place on home soil, England's women face a challenging summer, and Atherton believes they will be helped by playing at home but also face added pressure. Despite reaching the semi-finals of the 50-over World Cup, England are not considered firm favorites to win the T20 World Cup, with Australia being the top contenders.
