Jan Brittin

Janette Ann Brittin (4 July 1959 – 11 September 2017), usually known as Jan, was an England cricketer who played 27 Tests and 63 ODIs between 1979 and 1998. Her total of 1,935 runs is a Test record as are her five Test centuries.

Brittin's one-day record of 2,121 runs stood until 2003 when Charlotte Edwards became England's leading one-day run-scorer during the 214-run defeat of Sri Lanka. Edwards said "Jan was a very special player and it is a privilege to head the record table with someone like that". Brittin holds the record for taking the most number of catches in Women's Cricket World Cup history (19).
