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 exceptional talent. With 34 ODI and 45 T20I appearances for England under her belt, Capsey has already established herself as a skilled all-format operator 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 former England captain notes that it often takes young cricketers time to cope with the pressures and expectations that come with their talent, but he thinks Capsey is now ready to fulfill her potential. Meanwhile, Michael Atherton has tipped 19-year-old Davina Perrin to have a standout season, citing her impressive century in The Hundred last year. With England set to host the T20 World Cup, the team faces a challenging summer, and Atherton believes that the pressure of playing at home could be a double-edged sword. While England has a strong squad, Hussain thinks they struggle to perform under pressure in knockout games, and their ability to match top teams like Australia, India, and South Africa will be put to the test.
