The 2024 season was Sunrisers' fifth season, in which competed in the 50 over Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy and the Twenty20 Charlotte Edwards Cup. In the Charlotte Edwards Cup, the side finished bottom of the group, winning two of their ten matches.[2] In the Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy, the side finished fourth in the group stage, winning seven of their fourteen matches to qualify for the knockout stages.[3] They defeated group winners Northern Diamonds in the semi-final and South East Stars in the final to win their first-ever trophy.[4]
The side was captained by Grace Scrivens and coached by Andy Tennant.[5] They played five home matches at the County Ground, Chelmsford, three at Brunton Memorial Ground two apiece at the County Ground, Northampton and Lord's.[6][7]
This was Sunrisers' final season in existence, effectively being replaced by a professionalised Essex team under the England and Wales Cricket Board's changes to the structure of women's domestic cricket from 2025 onwards.[8]
