THE SCOTLAND SPIN STAR WHO’S A REAL DIAMOND
Off-spinning all-rounder Katherine Fraser has joined the Northern Diamonds on a summer contract for 2023.
Eighteen-year-old all-rounder Fraser led her country’s age-group side at January’s inaugural T20 World Cup in South Africa.
She has also played 31 senior T20 internationals, debuting for her country aged just 14 years and 81 days in 2019. She has taken 39 wickets, including a best of 4-19.
Fraser’s main suit is her off-spin bowling, but she is also a handy lower order batter with the determination to progress higher up the order for both region and country. Those who know her best also say she has an incredible cricket brain.
Fraser trained with the Diamonds through the winter and travelled with the squad on their pre-season tour to Desert Springs in Spain in late March. She qualifies to play for the Diamonds as a local player.
Born in Edinburgh, she is planning to study Geography at University in Leeds.
