Dani Gibson Eager To Make Up For Lost Time At Womens T20 World Cup
T20 World Cup: Dani Gibson is ready to move past a frustrating time of injuries and make a strong impact for the England women's team at the upcoming ICC Women's T20 World Cup at home. The 25-year-old all-rounder recently returned to international cricket during Englands ODI series against the New Zealand women's national cricket team. She had spent over a year on the sidelines due to a persistent back injury. Gibson showed promise in the series, scoring a quick 19 in the opening match at Durham and taking a wicket in each of her spells across the three games. Her performances led head coach Charlotte Edwards to name her in Englands 15-player squad for the T20 World Cup beginning on June 12. Ive been out of it for a while, so its just nice to be back, Gibson told Sky Sports Cricket. Everyone seems in a really good place. Weve had great time together over the last week, had good conversations, and spent time training together this winter. I think the team is in a good space it should be a good summer. England will continue their preparations for the global tournament with three T20Is against New Zealand starting on Wednesday. They will then play another three-match T20I series at home against the India women's national cricket team later this month.
