Brunt has been dating Sciver for about five years. Both of them announced their engagement in October of this year, and they planned to marry in September of 2020 at a place in France. The COVID-19 pandemic, however, compelled them to postpone the event.
Both were members of the England squad that advanced to the final of the 2022 Women’s Cricket World Cup, which was held in New Zealand recently. The Heather Knight-led English team made it to the final of the major tournament but were defeated by Meg Lannings’ Australia by 71 runs. Despite England’s heavy defeat in the top showdown, Sciver stole the show with brilliant 148-run innings.
The duo was also a part of England’s World Cup-winning Women’s Cricket team in 2017. The English women’s team had won the World Cup on home soil, defeating India by nine runs in a dramatic final in front of a sold-out Lords Cricket Ground.
Sciver and Brunt have joined the list of cricketing couples around the world, which includes Marizanne Kapp and Dane van Niekerk from South Africa and Amy Satterthwaite and Lea Tahuhu from New Zealand.
