Career

Less than four weeks after her 13th birthday, Tanguy 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. Batting at number four, she scored three runs off 10 balls before recording team-best bowling figures of 1/19 from her three overs. [2] [3]

Later that year she was in the Jersey team that finished runners-up at the France Women's T20I Quadrangular Series. [4] During the tournament, Tanguy contributed with both bat and ball, most notably taking 2/22 and then scoring 26 as the islanders won their second match with France [5] and recording figures of 2/13 in a nine-wicket victory over Austria. [6]

After a gap of almost four years, Tanguy returned to the Jersey set-up for the 2023 WT20I Inter-Insular Cup. She was not included in the side for the opening contest but took 1/12 in the second match [7] before bagging 2/7 and scoring six not out in the final game [8] [9] as the islanders swept the series 3–0.
