Early life
Ecclestone was born in Chester, Cheshire, and raised in Helsby, a village in the same county.{{cite news |last1=Thompson-Radford |first1=Hannah |title=The making of England's world number one |url=https://www.bbc.com/sport/cricket/60904260 |access-date=2 April 2022 |work=BBC Sport |date=30 March 2022}} From when she was a young child, she, her older brother, James, and her father, Paul, played cricket or football outside their home, on a daily basis. She also displayed proficiency at cricket.
Ecclestone considers that her brother James, who taught her how to play both football and cricket, has been the biggest influence on her career.{{cite web |last1=Bishop |first1=Tony |title=Sophie Ecclestone loves the FairBreak Invitational Spirit and is happy to discuss the Elephant (or rather Kangaroo) in the room |url=https://www.guerillacricket.com/news/3515,sophie-ecclestone-loves-fairbreak-invitational-spirit-and-happy-discuss-elephant-or-rather-kanga |website=Guerilla Cricket |access-date=17 May 2022 |language=en |date=12 May 2022}}{{cite web |last1=Ghosh |first1=Annesha |title=Sophie Ecclestone is world No. 1, but she's looking to fill an important gap in her CV |url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/sophie-ecclestone-is-world-no-1-but-shes-looking-to-fill-an-important-gap-in-her-cv-1320672 |work=ESPNcricinfo |access-date=8 July 2022 |language=en |date=24 June 2022}} She received her formal cricketing education at Alvanley Cricket Club in Helsby, where her father was the junior coordinator, and she was the only girl on the club's pathway.{{cite journal |last1=Friend |first1=Nick |title="It's like being back at school": The coming of age of England's young spinners |journal=The Cricketer |date=16 June 2020 |url=https://www.thecricketer.com/Topics/banner/sophie_ecclestone_mady_villiers_sarah_glenn_england_women_cricket_spinners_interview.html |access-date=2 July 2020}} She joined the club's junior section at seven years of age,{{cite web |author1=Cheshire Chronicle |title=Fifteen-year-old Helsby High School student joins England Women's cricket team in Sri Lanka |url=https://www.cheshire-live.co.uk/news/chester-cheshire-news/fifteen-year-old-helsby-high-school-student-9084223 |website=CheshireLive |access-date=11 June 2021 |date=20 April 2015}} and entered the Cheshire U13s pathway just two years later. When Ecclestone made her debut for the Alvanley boys' first team, James was one of her teammates.
Ecclestone undertook her secondary education at Helsby High School. On one occasion, she embarrassed her new school headmaster, after he allowed her to participate in an informal cricket match during the after school club. In 2020, she told BBC Sport:
{{Blockquote|text="I don't think he realised I could actually play cricket ... My mum told him I could play and he said: 'Yeah, she can join in.'
I got all the boys out, and I bowled the headmaster first ball. He said to me afterwards: 'So, you're OK at cricket?'
He was so nice to me for the rest of school after that."}}
According to former member of the Cheshire men's team and Alvanley's then left-arm spinner, Robin Fisher, who helped Ecclestone to discover the art of finger spinning, Ecclestone was so naturally talented that she did not need much coaching. Even then, some of the Alvanley boys speculated that she would play for England when she was older, but at that time she was just playing cricket for fun. By 2022, the club had made her a life member.
Meanwhile, in 2013, Ecclestone started playing for the Cheshire women's county team.{{cite web |title=Sophie Ecclestone |url=https://www.kookaburra.biz/en-gb/cricket/team-kookaburra/international/sophie%20ecclestone/ |website=Kookaburra website |publisher=Kookaburra Sport |access-date=26 June 2020}} She was then spotted by Lancashire, for which she signed and made her top-level domestic debut in 2015 at the age of 16.

Ecclestone was fast-tracked into England's Academy squad. In 2016, still aged 16, she was selected for the England Academy winter squad, and went on her first tour abroad, to Sri Lanka with the academy. During that tour, and despite suffering from homesickness, she took 16 wickets for the academy in a tri-series against Australia A and Sri Lanka A, including four wickets in a match against the latter team in Panagoda.
On 3 July 2016, she made her WT20I debut at the age of 17, during Pakistan's tour of England.{{Cite web |title=Uncapped Ecclestone in England Women's squad for Pakistan T20s |url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/uncapped-sophie-ecclestone-in-england-women-s-squad-for-pakistan-t20s-1031329 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160703080852/http://www.espncricinfo.com/women/content/story/1031329.html |archive-date=3 July 2016 |access-date=3 July 2016 |work=ESPNcricinfo}}{{cite web |url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/946551.html |title=Pakistan Women tour of England, 1st T20I: England Women v Pakistan Women at Bristol, Jul 3, 2016 |publisher=ESPNcricinfo |access-date=3 July 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160705231539/http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/946551.html |archive-date=5 July 2016 |url-status=live }} During that match, she had the good fortune to take her first wicket with a full toss. In September 2016 she was named in the England women's One Day International squad for their tour to the West Indies the following month.{{Cite web |title=Langston, Ecclestone selected in ODI squad |url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/beth-langston-sophie-ecclestone-selected-in-odi-squad-1057916 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160920224051/http://www.espncricinfo.com/women/content/story/1057916.html |archive-date=20 September 2016 |access-date=20 September 2016 |work=ESPNcricinfo}}
As the 2017 Women's Cricket World Cup approached, Ecclestone was in contention for selection to play for England, the ultimate winner of the tournament. However, she was still 17 years old, and had another round of exams to go before finishing school. Ecclestone, her parents and England's then coach Mark Robinson therefore decided that she would not play for England that summer.

Her height of {{convert|6|ft|m}}, which gives her extra angle, along with her ability to control the ball, makes her suitable for all three formats of the game. On 9 November 2017, she made her Test debut for England women against Australia women in the Women's Ashes.{{Cite web |url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/1086066.html |title=Only Test (D/N), England Women tour of Australia at Sydney, Nov 9-12 2017 |access-date=9 November 2017 |work=ESPNcricinfo |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170719014112/http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/1086066.html |archive-date=19 July 2017 |url-status=live }}

Ecclestone was the first England bowler to hold that distinction since Anya Shrubsole in 2016, and the first England spinner to do so since Danielle Hazell in 2015. She told The Cricketer in June 2020 that when the news was released, it was both overwhelming and the fulfilment of a dream she had had for several years.
