Natalie Ruth Sciver-Brunt (née Sciver; /ˈsɪvər/ SIV-ər;[1] born 20 August 1992) is an English cricketer who represents England in all formats.[2] She was the first cricketer for England to take a hat-trick in a Women's Twenty20 International match.[3] The "Natmeg" shot is named after Sciver-Brunt,[4] from when she has hit a cricket ball through her legs during a game.[5][6]

On 7 March 2021, Sciver-Brunt captained the England team for the first time in international cricket, for the third WT20I match against New Zealand, after Heather Knight was ruled out of the fixture due to an injury.[7]

On 6 September 2022, Sciver-Brunt was named as England's captain for their home WT20I series against India in the absence of Heather Knight.[8] Two days later, however, Sciver-Brunt announced that she had decided to withdraw from the series "to focus on her mental health and well being".[9]
