List of Western Storm cricketers

This is an alphabetical list of cricketers who played for Western Storm during their existence between 2016 and 2024. They first played in the Women's Cricket Super League, a Twenty20 competition, that ran from 2016 to 2019.[1] After a restructure of English women's domestic cricket in 2020, they competed in the 50 over Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy and, from 2021, the Twenty20 Charlotte Edwards Cup.[2][1][3] At the end of the 2024 season, Western Storm were effectively replaced by a professionalised Somerset team.[4]

Players' names are followed by the years in which they were active as a Western Storm player.[5] Seasons given are first and last seasons; the player did not necessarily play in all the intervening seasons. This list only includes players who appeared in at least one match for Western Storm; players who were named in the team's squad for a season but did not play a match are not included.
