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 under her belt, Capsey has established herself as a versatile player in international and franchise cricket. Hussain believes that Capsey's realization of her abilities will propel her to new heights, stating that 'the penny has dropped' for the 21-year-old. Capsey's reputation as a powerful all-rounder has garnered attention, and Hussain thinks she is on the cusp of a breakthrough. Meanwhile, Michael Atherton has tipped 19-year-old Davina Perrin as a potential breakout star, citing her impressive century in The Hundred last year. With England hosting the T20 World Cup, the team faces a challenging summer, and Atherton notes that the pressure of playing at home will be a significant factor. Despite reaching the semi-finals of the 50-over World Cup, England is not considered a firm favorite to win the T20 World Cup, with Australia and India being the top contenders.
