About Georgia Elwiss

Born in Wolverhampton, Georgia Elwiss is a seam-bowling all-rounder. She represented her home county - Staffordshire - in her late-teens and was roped in by Surrey in 2011. Elwiss got her maiden England call-up in June 2011 where she replaced an injured Jenny Gunn at the Women’s Quadrangular Series. She had to wait for four more months to get her maiden international cap and Elwiss made her ODI debut against South Africa. In the same tour, she also debuted in the shortest format.

In 2012, against a visiting Indian team, Elwiss bagged the Player of the Series award as she picked six wickets in five matches with the economy rate less than 2. Her figures of 3/12 in the final ODI not only fetched her the Player of the Match award, but also a spot in the England squad for the 2013 World Cup. In the multi-nation tournament, Elwiss made it to the playing XI only once, where her team finished third.
