Hazell was a late inclusion in England's victorious
2009 World Twenty20 squad replacing the injured
Anya Shrubsole, although she did not appear in the tournament. She made her England debut later that year in a One Day International against
West Indies at
Warner Park,
Basseterre taking one wicket for 41 runs. She subsequently made her Twenty20 International debut against West Indies at the same ground and made four runs opening the batting. She made her Test debut in the one-off
Ashes Test at
Bankstown Oval,
Sydney in January 2011. In 2013, she and
Holly Colvin recorded a 9th wicket partnership of 33* against West Indies, which was a record for the 9th wicket in Women's Twenty20 Internationals until it was broken by Namibian players Dietlind Förster and Anneri van Schoor. In 2014, she became one of the first 18 women cricketers to be awarded central contracts by the
England and Wales Cricket Board. Hazell was a member of the England team that won the
2017 Women's Cricket World Cup, playing in five matches but missing out on the final. In January 2019, Hazell announced her retirement from international cricket. ==Coaching career==
