Davina Sarah T Perrin (born 8 September 2006) is an English cricketer who currently plays for Staffordshire and Northern Superchargers. She plays as a right-handed batter.[1][2]

Early life and education

[edit]

Perrin was born in Wolverhampton, West Midlands.[1] Her father, David, played minor county cricket for Staffordshire; her own cricket club is Fordhouses in Wolverhampton.[3] In 2024, she graduated with a sport BTEC for which she had studied at Edgbaston.[3]

Domestic career

[edit]

Perrin made her county debut in 2021, for Staffordshire against Worcestershire.[4] In the 2022 Women's Twenty20 Cup, she was the fourth-highest run-scorer across the entire competition, with 242 runs at an average of 34.57.[5] She made 87 from 75 deliveries in Staffordshire's victory over Berkshire.[6]

Perrin was selected for the Central Sparks Academy in 2021, and scored a century during an intra-squad multi-day game in September.[7][8] Later that month, Perrin was added to the full Central Sparks squad, and made her debut for the side on 10 September, in a Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy match against Sunrisers.[9] She played four matches overall for the side that season, scoring 92 runs including a best of 43 made against South East Stars.[10][11]

In 2022, Perrin scored 137 runs at an average of 27.40 in the Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy, as well as playing six matches in the Charlotte Edwards Cup.[12][13] In a Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy match against Sunrisers, Perrin scored 45 opening the batting and took 3/26 from her 5 overs.[14] She also signed for Birmingham Phoenix in the 2022 season of The Hundred, becoming the youngest player in the competition at 15 years old.[3][15] However, she did not play a match for the side.[3][16]

At the end of the 2022 season, it was announced that Perrin had signed her first professional contract with Central Sparks.[17] By entering into that contract, she became only the third Black female professional cricketer in the UK;[3] "When I step on to that pitch, I'm representing girls of ethnic minorities who are underrepresented across the game, particularly the professional game," she later told The Guardian.[3] She has also been involved with Ebony Rainford-Brent's ACE (African Caribbean Engagement) programme.[3]

In 2023, Perrin played 15 matches for Central Sparks, across the Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy and the Charlotte Edwards Cup.[18][19] She was again in the Birmingham Phoenix squad for The Hundred, but did not play a match.[20][21] In 2024, she played 23 matches for Central Sparks, across the Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy and the Charlotte Edwards Cup, scoring three half-centuries.[22][23]

International career

[edit]

In October 2022, Perrin was selected in the England Under-19 squad for the 2023 ICC Under-19 Women's T20 World Cup.[24] She played four matches in the tournament, scoring 36 runs and taking two wickets.[25] As of 2024, she had ambitions to play for the England senior team.[3]
