A crafty off-spinner, Katherine Fraser is a professional cricketer for the Scotland women’s team. Still studying in school, she was just 14 years old when she impressed the cricketing fraternity with her bowling skills on her debut against Germany on June 29th, 2019.
Despite her youth, Fraser has already made a significant impact on the young Scotland team. In the recent quadrangular tournament in the Netherlands, featuring the Dutch, Thai and Irish sides, Fraser finished as the joint leading wicket-taker with nine wickets from her six appearances. Her three-wicket hauls in narrow victories over Netherlands and Thailand proved vital.
At the tender age of 16, Fraser will be key in Scotland's quest to secure a place in their first-ever women’s World Cup in either format, T20 or 50 overs. Evidently, a quick learner, Fraser, the youngest player in the tournament, may well be one of the most important. If everything goes well for Scotland, she may have to miss some more school.
