The right-handed batter, Lauren Down returned to the central contract list and wicketkeeper-batter Polly Inglis was handed her first central contract offer.
Formerly top-ranked batters Ellyse Perry of Australia and Suzie Bates of New Zealand have progressed in the ICC Women's ODI Batting Rankings while England's Amy Jones has attained a career-best 17th position after their performances in matches of the ICC Women's Championship.

Suzie Bates was part of New Zealand's basketball team that went to the Beijing Games in 2008 and the 36-year-old has not given up hope of still being around in 2028 and making it to a second Olympics, though this time as a cricketer.
New Zealand star Suzie Bates is closing on the top spot in the Women's Rankings for T20I batters in the weekly update, moving three spots up to No.5, as per ICC.
