Lucky To Play In My First Women's T20 WC At 19, Says Scotland’s Darcey Carter
T20 World Cup: It was in the year 2023 that Darcey Carter showed her potential as a skilled off-spin all-rounder for the Scotland women’s team. She kicked off the year by being selected for Scotland’s first-ever U19 Women’s T20 World Cup squad in South Africa, and later made her senior white-ball debuts in July.
2023 ended on a bright note for Darcey as she was nominated for the ICC Women’s Emerging Cricketer of the Year Award, alongside eventual winner Phoebe Litchfield, Marufa Akter and Lauren Bell. Darcey, who has qualified to play for Scotland through her mother’s Scottish heritage, is now geared up to take part in the upcoming Women’s T20 World Cup in the UAE from October 3-20.
"Seeing England win ODI World Cup in 2017 was really great. I was growing up watching World Cups, it’s always been a dream of mine to get to one. Qualifying for the under 19 World Cup was the first time I was in a World Cup. I was part of a new group for Scotland. Just to be able to be a part of that first ever under 19 World Cup was a really great experience.
