Early life

Domestic career

Davies made her debut for Wales in a 2007 County Challenge Cup against Oxfordshire. She scored 22* in a 174 run victory.[4] Davies played for Wales until 2014, after which she joined Somerset. In her first season with Somerset, she was the side's second-leading run-scorer in the 2015 Women's County Championship, and achieved her List A high score of 96 in a match against Durham.[5][6]

In 2018, Davies joined Warwickshire. She was part of the side that won the 2019 Women's Twenty20 Cup, and Davies was the second-highest run-scorer for the team, with 200 runs at an average of 33.33.[7][8] She hit consecutive half-centuries in games against Middlesex and Kent on 23 June.[9][10] She also played one match for Worcestershire in the 2019 Women's County Championship.[11]

She scored 169 runs across the six matches, at an average of 28.16.[13] In December 2020, it was announced that Davies was one of the 41 female cricketers that had signed a full-time domestic contract.[14]

In 2021, Davies was ever-present for Central Sparks across the Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy and the Charlotte Edwards Cup.[15][16] She made one half-century for the side that season, scoring 50 from 59 deliveries against Sunrisers.[17] She also played for Birmingham Phoenix in The Hundred, scoring 48 runs across the nine matches she appeared in.[18] She played every match for Central Sparks in the 2022 Charlotte Edwards Cup, scoring 42 runs.[19] She did not play for Sparks in the 2022 Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy, but did join Lightning on loan, playing two matches.[20] She also played four matches for Birmingham Phoenix in The Hundred.[21] Ahead of the 2023 season, it was confirmed that Davies had left Central Sparks.[22]

Davies has also been part of the England Development Programme, and played for Rubies in the 2013 Super Fours.[2]
