Grace Harris

Grace Harris (T20 cricket) announced herself with a match-turning knock in the opening game of the Birmingham Commonwealth Games against India with 37 off just 20 balls, the energetic all-rounder appearing in all five matches on the way to winning the inaugural gold medal

The right-handed batter and right-arm off-spin bowler made her debut for Australia in a T20 international against Ireland on a UK tour in 2015. Grace had been added to the squad to replace the injured Delissa Kimmince, who later become her sister-in-law. 

Her reputation grew after she made 103 from 55 balls and also took four wickets in a match for the Brisbane Heat against the Sydney Sixers in the inaugural Women’s Big Bash League (WBBL) season, the first century in the competition.

In January 2016, Grace was named in the Australian squad for one-day and T20 internationals against India but struggled to maintain her place in the team. In 2018, she clobbered the fastest WBBL century ever, taking only 42 balls. She received a welcome recall to the Australian squad in 2022 as part of the squad for World Cup in New Zealand but didn’t take the field in any matches during the tournament.
