An opening batter and wicket-keeper, she was, according to her Wisden obituary, generally accepted as the outstanding wicket-keeper of her generation. In February 1935 she scored 189 against New Zealand at Christchurch, then a world record for the highest individual innings in women's Test cricket. She also represented Scotland at international squash and lacrosse.
