From prodigy to leader: Gaby Lewis aims to become Ireland’s greatest-ever

Must read

Although Lewis was sidelined by a quad injury after leading the team in the opening game of the series, the Dublin-born batter is keen to continue developing her leadership skills and help guide the talented Ireland team to even greater heights.

She has also recently completed her radiography degree at University College in Dublin and is ready to put more time into focusing on her cricket.

“I love being in a leadership role in this team,” Lewis added.

“Coming into the team early, I was kind of put up to the challenge. Obviously, you do have to speak up in meetings and being so young and it’s something you just have to do. And I think I’ve really relished that opportunity and now it’s something that I’m quite confident in.

“My greatest challenge, definitely over the last four years, has been trying to balance cricket and my degree in radiography. And I’m really excited to have that in the bank and really put all my focus into cricket over the next couple of years.”
