T20 World Cup: Having endured two stress fractures, considered a bowler's worst nightmare, so far, England all-rounder Freya Kemp is looking forward to making a big impact on her debut in the ICC Women's T20 World Cup in UAE next week.

While braving one stress fracture is difficult for a player, Kemp has had two of them before the age of 19. The England all-rounder will make her major event debut at the Women’s T20 World Cup but only after two years of hard graft to come back from serious injury.

“It’s a huge honour to be picked in any squad, but especially for a World Cup,” Kemp was quoted as saying by the ICC media team on Friday. “It’s even more special given I missed the last one. It’s been a tough two years, but it makes it even better having had a slightly harder journey to get here.”
