Barbara McDonald Biography

Barbara McDonald is one of the most popular and richest Cricketer who was born on May 28, 1972 in Waterford, County Waterford, Ireland. Barbara Mary McDonald (born 28 May 1972) is a former Irish international cricketer whose career for the Irish national side spanned from 1993 to 2005. A right-arm pace bowler, she played a single Test and 57 One Day International (ODI) matches for Ireland, appearing at the 1993, 1997, 2000, and 2005 World Cups.

McDonald had her greatest personal success as a player at the 2003 IWCC Trophy in the Netherlands, where she was named player of the tournament. Her five matches had yielded 11 wickets at an average of only 5.54, which included figures of 4/13 against the West Indies, 3/10 against Japan, and 2/13 against the Netherlands. Ireland were undefeated, and consequently qualified for the 2005 World Cup in South Africa. Now aged 32, McDonald remained one of her team’s opening bowlers, and again played every match, finishing as equal leading wicket-taker with Heather Whelan. She played her final international matches later in the year, at the 2005 edition of the European Championship. McDonald finished her career as Ireland’s leading wicket-taker in ODIs, although she has since been overtaken by Isobel Joyce.

Within a few years, she had established herself as one of Ireland’s opening bowlers, notably taking 2/40 and 3/17 in consecutive matches against the touring South Africans during the 1997 season. At the 1997 World Cup in India, McDonald took five wickets from five matches, behind only Catherine O’Neill for Ireland.

She added 1/19 in the second innings as her team won by an innings and 54 runs. However, at the World Cup in New Zealand later in the year, McDonald had less success, taking only three wickets from seven matches.
