Dani Hazell backs next women’s head coach to ‘put their mark on English cricket’

DURHAM head coach Dani Hazell has declined to rule herself out of the running for the vacant England job, a role she believes will allow someone “to put their mark on English cricket.”

Jon Lewis’s sacking after a miserable Ashes tour has created a high-profile vacancy at the exact moment the domestic women’s game is embarking on its own profound revamp — potentially awkward timing for some of those helping to launch the county structure.

Former England captain Charlotte Edwards is widely seen as the favourite to succeed Lewis despite her role in charge of the new Hampshire side, while Hazell has also been tipped as a possible candidate.
