Charlie Dean will take over as captain of London Spirit in this year's Hundred, replacing Heather Knight who is sidelined due to a hamstring injury. Knight had previously led the team to their first title last year. Despite her absence, Knight will assist in a coaching and mentoring role. Dean, who has experience leading Spirit, expressed her disappointment over Knight's injury but emphasized the importance of her guidance. The team has also appointed a new head coach, Chris Liddle, after Ashley Noffke's departure to join the Pakistan men's team.
We have a great squad and I know the expectation will be high after winning the competition last year, but I'm gutted Heather won't be playing with us this year.
Tapping into her experience and knowledge will be invaluable as Heather will still be around to help us out.
