Father: James Sutherland, Brother: Will Sutherland
Annabel Sutherland is one of the most exciting young allrounders in world cricket, widely regarded as a future great of the Australian women’s team. The 24-year-old from Victoria has already amassed an extraordinary record, with six international centuries before turning 24, including three in Tests with a magnificent double hundred of 210 against South Africa. Her Test batting average of 89.37 is exceptional, and she has shown the ability to dominate in all conditions. Sutherland’s bowling has flourished equally, particularly in T20Is where she has taken 50 wickets in 55 matches, including consecutive four-wicket hauls against New Zealand. A product of a distinguished cricketing family—her father James is a former Cricket Australia CEO and state player, while her brother Will has also played for Victoria and Australia—Sutherland made her WBBL debut at just 15 and has since become a key figure across all formats. Her promotion up the ODI batting order brought back-to-back centuries, propelling her to the Belinda Clark Award in 2025 and again in 2026, cementing her status as one of the world’s premier allrounders.
