Hampshire Men return to Utilita Bowl as they face Worcestershire in the second round of County Championship fixtures featuring the Kookaburra ball
Wicket keeper Chloe Hill will depart the Southern Vipers following the conclusion to her six month pro contract and will join South East Stars.
Hill, 26, first joined the Vipers on loan from Central Sparks in 2022, and made her debut against Lightning at Derby before recording her first half-century for the club at The Ageas Bowl against Sunrisers.
Captaining Worcestershire, despite being born in Buckinghamshire, Hill started her career at the Sparks where she played 14 matches, before scoring 111 runs and taking three dismissals for the Vipers.
In 2023, she was awarded a six month pro contract at the club, but spent most of the season on loan to South East Stars where she scored 167 runs in eight matches, with one fifty.
Everyone at Southern Vipers thanks Chloe for her efforts over the last couple of years and wish her all the best for the future.
