Beschrijving
Red leather cricket ball with a silver plaque attached. Inscription ‘presented to Mary Duggan by Aust Womens Cricket Council in honour of her bowling Test Match against Australia at Melbourne February 1958 taking 7 wickets for 6 runs'.
Mary Duggan’s astonishing innings figures of 14.5-11-6-7 helped England bowl Australia out for just 38 in the first innings of the second Test at St Kilda in February 1958. A versatile left-arm bowler both of spin and medium-fast swing, Duggan was also a fine middle-order batsman who captained England between 1957 and 1963 without suffering a single defeat.
