Knight still has plenty to offer as England captain

Knight, from Plymstock, succeeded Charlotte Edwards, who had a decade-long stint in the position, in June 2016 and her tenure has coincided with some ground-breaking moments for women's cricket, both domestically and worldwide.

While great rival Meg Lanning stepped down as Australia captain and retired from international cricket late last year, Knight insisted she still gets a kick out of leading England and has much more to give.

"It's a lot of fun and I'm still enjoying doing it," the 33-year-old said. "As long as I'm moving things and myself forward and still enjoying it, it's something I want to continue to do.
