The off-spinner received the primary of her 69 England caps in 2021 when she was known as up for the One-Day Worldwide sequence towards New Zealand, the place she was England’s main wicket-taker with 10.
Dean grew to become the quickest girl to take 50 ODI wickets for England, doing so in 26 matches and in 2022 was named the PCA’s Girls’s ODI Participant of the Yr.
“The membership has a wealthy historical past of success within the males’s sport, and that is one thing we’re eager to duplicate as the ladies’s group,” Dean mentioned.
“I’d like to make some successful contributions at Somerset with each bat and ball, serving to the group to convey house some silverware.”
