Heather Knight has been a consistent performer for England for quite a while, scoring 1474 runs in 93 matches. She is averaging 23.39 in T20I cricket and can also chip in with the ball.

Hayley Matthews (78 matches, 1451 runs, 74 wickets)
Hayley Matthews is perhaps West Indies' best player with 1451 runs and 74 wickets in 78 matches.
