Georgia Voll, Flintoff receive maiden Australia central contacts

Australian batter Georgia Voll has bagged her maiden Cricket Australia contract following a series of outstanding innings. However, veteran player Jess Jonassen, who has not played for Australia since October 2023, has been omitted from the 18-player list. All-rounder Tess Flintoff has also been awarded her first Cricket Australia contract.
Meanwhile, Georgia Voll, who was slotted to open the innings for Australia in the ODI series against India in December, made a prompt statement, blazing a century in her second ODI innings. Flintoff, on the other hand, is yet to make her international debut but was bolted into the Australian squad as injury cover during the 2023 ODI tour of Ireland.
“Tess is an exciting young player who we can see having a long future in the green and gold. Having overcome injury we’re looking forward to seeing her fit and firing throughout summer which adds further depth to our pace-bowling stocks,” Australia selector Shawn Flegler said.
“Georgia has made a sensational start to her international career, showing her immense talent from the onset and playing a pivotal role for the team in the absence of Alyssa Healy at the top of the order.
“Her ability to adapt to the various formats has been impressive and will come into play with an ODI World Cup later this year and a multi-format series against India in the new year.
“While Jess Jonassen has not been included on this year’s list, we’re always keeping an eye on players outside of the squad and she is no exception.”
Australia’s contracted women’s players 2025-26: Darcie Brown, Tess Flintoff, Ashleigh Gardner, Kim Garth, Heather Graham, Grace Harris, Alyssa Healy, Alana King, Phoebe Litchfield, Tahlia McGrath, Sophie Molineux, Beth Mooney, Ellyse Perry, Megan Schutt, Annabel Sutherland, Tayla Vlaeminck, Georgia Voll, Georgia Wareham
