She took seven wickets from six matches, including 3/12 against England and 2/16 against India, and finished the tournament ranked equal fifth for overall wickets taken.[7]

In October 2018, Cricket West Indies (CWI) awarded her a women's contract for the 2018–19 season.[8][9] Later the same month, she was named in the West Indies' squad for the 2018 ICC Women's World Twenty20 tournament in the West Indies.[10][11] In January 2020, she was named in West Indies' squad for the 2020 ICC Women's T20 World Cup in Australia.[12] In May 2021, Fletcher was awarded with a central contract from Cricket West Indies.[13] In February 2022, she was named in the West Indies team for the 2022 Women's Cricket World Cup in New Zealand.[14]
