This week on She’s in the Game we’re joined by rising cricket star Claire Moore. From coming through the entire CNSW pathway to debuting with the NSW Breakers at just 18, Claire’s journey is already stacked with achievements. She represented Australia at the inaugural U19 World Cup in 2023 and has worn both Sixers and Thunder colours in the WBBL — all before the age of 21.
Off the field, Claire’s Western Sydney roots shine through, and her fun-loving alter ego Crystal is never far away. We chat about her pathway, the highs and challenges of elite cricket, and of course, a little bit about Crystal’s love for the spotlight and a boogie.
