Jane captained England in the 1988 World Cup Final and coached her country on their 2002/03 Ashes tour, while Jill emigrated to Perth, Australia after playing international cricket.

Marvels captain Lois Hopkins said: "It was an absolute pleasure and honour to have Jane and Jill Powell come and deliver a coaching session and Q&A afterwards.

"It was an incredible experience, everyone enjoyed it so much and took a lot away from it. Certainly something the Marvels will never forget."
