They are set to compete against the Oman national women’s side in a series of T20 and 40-over matches from Friday, February 9 until Friday, February 16, with Mote CC becoming the first English club side to face Oman.

Mote Women captain Shottie Hopkins added leading out the team to play under floodlights against a national women’s outfit on a world-class wicket will be a memory which lasts a lifetime.
The tour has been made possible thanks to the support of Mote CC’s players, management team, including Iain Hume, Oman Cricket and sponsors Esquire Developments and Salix Cricket.
Squad: Shottie Hopkins, Daisy Conway, Abi Davis, Ella Darlington, Lucy Blincoe, Sam Wright, Charlie Noble, Charlotte Slaughter, Tamsin Rees , Evie Ghaemian, Hemma Beddy, Emmy Mitford Slade, Hannah Kruger, Nick Aldrich, Chris Feltham, Iain Hume.
