Gaby Lewis
Gaby Hollis Lewis (born 27 March 2001) is an Irish international cricketer and captain of the Ireland women's team.
She made her senior international debut in July 2014, aged only 13 and made her Twenty20 International (T20I) debut later in the same year, becoming the youngest to play at that level. The International Cricket Council (ICC) named Lewis as one of the five breakout stars in women's cricket in 2018.
She currently captains the Women's Super Series team Scorchers. In June 2022, at the age of 21, Lewis became the youngest player to captain the Ireland Women's team in international cricket.
Lewis was born in Dublin. Her older sister, Robyn Lewis, has played alongside her both at club and national level, while her father, Alan Lewis, and grandfather, Ian Lewis, both represented the Irish men's side. Both members of Dublin's YMCA Cricket Club, the Lewis sisters first came to attention in November 2013, when they were named in Cricket Ireland's Emerging Players Squad. Gaby Lewis was first called up to Ireland's senior team in July 2014, playing five matches against English county sides in the ECB Women's Twenty20 Cup. She subsequently made her international debut in August, playing twice against the Netherlands at the 2014 European Championship. In the second of those matches, she scored 38 from 35 balls coming in third in the batting order, which included a 94-run partnership with Clare Shillington (20 years her elder).
Lewis has played in the Women's Super Series for Dragons and Scorchers, and began captaining Scorchers ahead of the 2020 season. On 12 August 2021, Lewis was signed as a replacement player for Southern Brave in The Hundred, after Smriti Mandhana returned home. She played two matches for the side, scoring just 9 runs. She was also signed by Southern Vipers for the remainder of their 2021 Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy campaign. She played four matches, scoring 97 runs at an average of 24.25, as the side won the competition. In 2022, she was signed by Northern Superchargers in The Hundred as a replacement for the injured Jemimah Rodrigues.
On 3 September 2025, Lewis signed a short-term contract with Lancashire. She went on to score 272 runs across five innings for the club including 141 not out as they beat Hampshire in the final of the Women's One-Day Cup on 21 September 2025.
In September 2014, Lewis was selected in Ireland's squad for a three-match T20I series against South Africa, played at a neutral venue in Birmingham, England. She sat the first game out, but was included for the final two games, scoring five runs on debut and then 12 not out in the third game. On debut, Lewis was 13 years and 166 days old, breaking the record set by her teammate Lucy O'Reilly for the youngest T20I player. She also became the first international cricketer born in the 21st century. Across all men's and women's international cricket (Tests, ODIs, and T20Is), only Pakistan's Sajjida Shah has played at a younger age.
After her debut series against South Africa, Lewis next played at international level in August 2015, when she was named in Ireland's squad for a three-match series against Australia. In the first match, she came in sixth in the batting order, and scored 23 runs from 30 balls, behind only Cecelia Joyce. She had less success, however, in the other matches, scoring four runs in the second game and ten in the third. Later in the year, Lewis also played in the 2015 World Twenty20 Qualifier in Thailand. At the 2016 World Twenty20 in India, she played in two of her team's matches (against New Zealand and Sri Lanka), but had little impact.
