Jones, who has represented her nation on 153 occasions, said she was just as thrilled to have the chance to play under Trevor Griffin, the only coach to have won the elite domestic T20 competitions in both England and Australia. They speak very highly of the group and the club, and I can’t wait to be a part of that.” “What I’ve heard from Heather Knight and Tammy Beaumont is the club has a bunch of really cool people. Thunder seems to have a tremendous blend of experience and youth. “And while I’m looking forward to that I also realise there’s loads of exciting talent there. “I played alongside Rachael at Loughborough Lightning in 2018, and she was an excellent leader,” said Jones. However, 29-year-old Jones conceded the opportunity to join forces with Australian cricket great Rachael Haynes in this, her final season with Sydney Thunder, was an irresistible lure. I look forward to having fun out there - and hopefully contributing to some wins for Sydney Thunder.” “I’ve had a year or two out of the league, so it will be great to be a part of the competition again. Jones, who captained England in their recent series against India, said she was looking forward to returning to the excitement of playing in the ultra-competitive WBBL. One of the world’s best cricketers, England’s Amy Jones, said the opportunity to play alongside an inspirational former teammate - and host of talented young players on the rise - compelled her to join Sydney Thunder for this year’s Weber Women’s Big Bash League campaign.
