Ami Campbell (born 6 June 1991) is an English cricketer who currently plays for North East Warriors, Northern Diamonds and Northern Superchargers. She plays as a left-handed batter. She has previously played for Northumberland, Yorkshire and Durham.[1][2]

Early life[]

Campbell was born on 6 June 1991 in Newcastle upon Tyne.[2]

Domestic career[]

Campbell made her county debut in 2005, in a County Challenge Cup match for Northumberland against Durham.[3] Northumberland joined the full County Championship in 2008, and a season later Campbell was their top run-scorer in the tournament, as well as hitting her maiden county half-century, 68* against Ireland.[4][5] In 2010, Campbell was again Northumberland's Championship leading run-scorer, with 193 runs at an average of 38.40.[6] She also took her maiden five-wicket haul in 2010, with 5/31 against Shropshire.[7]

Campbell then took a break from county cricket for two years, returning in 2013 to play for Yorkshire. After two seasons with Yorkshire making little impact and another season's break, Campbell returned to Northumberland.[8] Campbell soon returned to form, and was Northumberland's leading run-scorer in both the 2016 Women's County Championship and 2016 Women's Twenty20 Cup, and hit her career high score in both formats, 135 in List A matches and 81 in Twenty20s.[9][10][11][12]

Campbell moved to Durham ahead of the 2018 season, with her best season for the side coming that year, when she hit 147 runs at an average of 36.75 in the 2018 Women's County Championship.[13] In 2020, Durham merged with Northumberland to form the North East Warriors.[14] Although the side has not played any competitive matches due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Campbell appeared in two friendlies against Scotland for the team in 2020.[15]

In 2020, Campbell played for Northern Diamonds in the Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy. She appeared in five matches, including the Final, scoring 70 runs with a high score of 43, made against Lightning.[16][17]

In May 2021, it was announced that Campbell had signed for Northern Superchargers in The Hundred.[18]
