She was Thunder's most economical bowler in the Charlotte Edwards Cup, with four wickets at an economy of 4.64.[14] She was also the second-highest wicket-taker across the whole Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy, with 14 wickets.[15] In the final group stage match against South East Stars, Jones took her maiden five-wicket haul, 5/33 to bowl her side to a 55-run victory.[16] She also played four matches for Manchester Originals in The Hundred, taking four wickets, including 3/17 in the side's victory over Southern Brave.[17][18] She was ever-present for North West Thunder in 2022, and was the side's leading wicket-taker in the Charlotte Edwards Cup, with nine wickets at an average of 13.00.[19][20] She also played all six matches for Manchester Originals in The Hundred, taking four wickets.[21] In 2023, she played three matches for North West Thunder, all in the Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy, taking four wickets.[22]
