Tammy Beaumont reunited with stolen kit
After posting a plea on Twitter, England Women’s Tammy Beaumont has been reunited with her kit bag, which contained her England caps for her 50th appearances in one-day international and Twenty20 International cricket.

The opening batter’s items were stolen on the night of 27 April after her car was broken into, and the 27-year-old had taken to Twitter to report the theft and urge her fans and followers to report in case they spotted her kit anywhere.
2/2 what’s most upsetting is losing my 50th England caps, those can’t be replaced unlike the rest. Also might be struggling for training on Tuesday with no kit! 😔 https://t.co/ddrGPnLI1F

To her fortune, within two hours of her reporting this, the police found her kit, which was abandoned in a field with all the elements still inside.
Beaumont was the Player of the Series in last year's Women's World Cup as she scored 410 runs at 45.55 and played a crucial role in England taking home the trophy. England beat India by nine runs in the final at Lord's in an unforgettable contest.
