Eileen Ash was the world's oldest former Test cricketer.
The bowler made her England debut in 1937, played seven Tests for England, and retired in 1949.
Ash rang the bell at Lord's before England won the Women's World Cup.
Ash was a pioneer in women's cricket, according to the managing director of women's cricket.
Eileen Ash said that she was one of the most extraordinary ladies she had met.
"I am sad to say goodbye to her today," said Connor.
"Heather and I went to visit Eileen about six months before the Women's World Cup and it was one of the most remarkable experiences."
Eileen taught Heather yoga, we played snooker, drank cups of tea and leafed through newspapers and photos of Eileen as a player in the 1930s and 1940s.
She regaled us with stories about how she got her bat signed by Sir Donald Bradman at a French restaurant in 1949. It was a special day and neither of us will ever forget it.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Eileen's family as they come to terms with the loss of a wonderful woman.
Ash made her England debut against Australia under her maiden name of Whelan and went on to take 10 of her 11 career strikeouts.
She played for Civil Service Women and the South Women.
A portrait of Ash was unveiled in 2019.
