Season 2023-24 saw Darke produce another consistent campaign atop the order, compiling 458 runs at 50.88 including five half-centuries to finish as WA's second leading run-scorer behind skipper Chloe Piparo.
Her performances saw her earn WA Cricket's Female Rising Star award, recognising outstanding on-field efforts from young players.
A top order batter who possesses a sound technique and the ability to score all over the ground, Darke continued to take her game to the next level last season, with her and Piparo regularly getting WA off to quick starts in the Powerplay.
Darke has also proved herself to be one of the finest wicketkeepers in the WNCL, finishing with the most catches behind the stumps for a second consecutive season.
A highly regarded leader within the group, look for Darke's cricket to reach new heights next season.
