Career
Aged 12, Merritt played in Jersey's first officially recognised WT20I against neighbours Guernsey for the 2019 T20 Inter-Insular Cup at College Field, Saint Peter Port on 31 May 2019. Opening the batting, she faced the islanders' first WT20I delivery and went on to score 17 off 28 balls, as well as bowling 2.5 overs recording figures of 0/33.[2][3]
Later that year she won the best young player award as Jersey finished second at the France Women's T20I Quadrangular Series.[4]
Merritt was part of the squad which represented Jersey in the 2023 ICC Women's T20 World Cup Europe Qualifier. Her personal tournament highlight was smashing six boundaries on the way to making 45 not out off 35 balls against Germany in an unbroken partnership of 101 with Grace Wetherall, which was a new WT20I record for a seventh wicket stand.[5][6][7][8]
She made her first WT20I half-century against Guernsey in the third match of the 2023 WT20I Inter-Insular Cup, hitting nine boundaries in a score of 58 as Jersey sealed a 3–0 series victory.[9][10]
