County and franchise career
Although she played youth cricket for Somerset, appearing in both the Under-15 and Under-17 Women's County Championships, Shrubsole made her first-team debut for the county at the age of 12.[11] Facing Berkshire in the Women's County Championship, Shrubsole claimed two wickets in her six overs after opening the bowling alongside Steph Davies, helping Somerset to a four-wicket victory.[12] She scored her first runs in women's List A cricket in the following match, remaining ten not out against Staffordshire.[13] Though she only played three of Somerset's five fixtures in the 2004 competition, Shrubsole finished with the county's second-best bowling average, her five wickets in the competition coming at an average of 11.20.[14]

Shrubsole's first match of the 2007 season brought her best career bowling return in women's List A cricket.

Personal life
