Shamilia Shontell Connell (born 14 July 1992) is a Barbadian cricketer who represents the West Indies internationally. A right-arm fast bowler, she made her international debut in 2014.

Connell made her international debut in September 2014, in a Twenty20 International against New Zealand.[1] Her One Day International (ODI) debut came a few months later, against Australia.[2] However, Connell did her take her first international wicket until October 2015, in an ODI series against Pakistan. She finished with six wickets, the most for her team, which including 3/32 in the fourth ODI.[3] At the 2016 World Twenty20 in India, Connell was a member of the West Indian squad that won their first world title, featuring in all matches at the tournament.[4] She has been compared to retired West Indian fast bowler Joel Garner, in that she is "tall, dangerously quick, and not scared to bowl bouncers".[5]

In October 2018, Cricket West Indies (CWI) awarded her a women's contract for the 2018–19 season.[6][7] 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.[8][9]
