Chloe May Greechan (born 22 September 2000) is a sportswoman from Jersey. She plays for the Jersey women's cricket team, for which she has been captain since 2020, and is the first woman from the island to take a five-wicket haul in WT20Is. Greechan is also a former world champion in indoor bowls.
Having represented Jersey since she was 13-years-old,[2] Greechan played in the island's first officially recognised WT20I against neighbours Guernsey for the 2019 T20 Inter-Insular Cup on 31 May 2019. Batting at number six, she scored 4 not out in her side's innings before taking the new ball and sending down Jersey's first-ever WT20I delivery, going on to take one wicket for 20 runs in her four overs.[3] [4]
Later that year she won the best fielder award as Jersey finished second at the France Women's T20I Quadrangular Series.[5]
Appointed captain of the national team in 2020,[2] Greechan won the Jersey Cricket Women's Cricketer of the Year award in 2021 and again in 2022,[6] the latter coming after she led the islanders to victory at the 2022 France Women's T20I Quadrangular Series[7] [8] and a 3–0 sweep in the newly expanded Women's Inter-Insular Cup.[9] [10]
At the 2023 ICC Women's T20 World Cup Europe Qualifier division two tournament, Greechan finished as the competition's leading wicket-taker with 11 dismissals to her name.[11] That total included figures of 5/4 in a 108-run win against Sweden with three of her four overs being maidens. This made Greechan the first Jersey player to take a five-wicket haul in WT20Is.[12] [13] [14]
Greechan had a trial at English professional club Sunrisers in 2023.[11]
During the 2024 WT20I Inter-insular Cup, which had reverted to a one-off match, Greechan conceded just two runs from her three overs and scored 14 not out as Jersey defeated Guernsey by 104 runs to retain the title for the third successive year at Grainville Cricket Ground in St Saviour.[15] [16]
In August 2024, Greechan was among the British and Irish Roses squad selected to take on Team Europe in the inaugural Meltl Shield, a nine-match T10 competition, held at Roma Cricket Ground in Rome, Italy.[17]
In April 2015, aged just 14, Greechan won the IIBC Championships Mixed Pairs world title with her father, Thomas.[18] [19] She retained the crown a year later alongside Malcolm De Sousa.[20]
Greechan won the 2023 Channel Islands Indoor Bowls Championship women's pairs title with Megan Kivlin, defeating Guernsey duo Alison Merrien and Shirley Petit in the final.[21]
In May 2024, she was selected to represent Jersey at that year's European Championships to be held in September in Ayr, Scotland.[22]
