Playing career
Grundy has played for Warwickshire.[1] In 2014, Grundy was part of the England Academy squad.[2] Grundy was brought into the England squad for the 2014 ICC Women's World Twenty20 in Bangladesh.[3] On pitches that generally help spin bowlers, Grundy made her England debut in the opening fixture of the tournament and retained her place through all the group matches.[4] She was the holder of one of the first tranche of 18 ECB central contracts for women players, which were announced in April 2014.[5] Grundy was called up for the summer series against India and South Africa, which included her first Women's Test match and Women's One Day International callups.[1][6] She later had to withdraw from the series with a groin injury.[7] She played for England in the 2015 Women's Ashes series.[8] Grundy was in the squad for the 2016 ICC Women's World Twenty20.[9]
In total, Grundy made 21 appearances for England,[10] and her last appearance for England was in 2016. At the end of 2016, she lost her central contract.[11] Grundy played for Perth Scorchers in the 2016–17 Women's Big Bash League season,[8][10] as a replacement for the injured Anya Shrubsole.[12]
Grundy's nicknames are "Grunners" and "Carol". In 2015, she explained to sports journalist Clare Balding that the latter nickname was "as in Vorderman – we played Countdown on tour and I was in Carol’s position at the board."[13]
Coaching career
Grundy worked as a development coach for the Western Australia women's cricket team.[11] Whilst Grundy was a coach there, Western Australia won the 2019–20 Women's National Cricket League.[10] In May 2020, she was named as the head coach of Western Australia.[11] She was signed on a two-year contract.[8]
