Source-derived summary

This is a List of Australia women Test cricketers who have played Test cricket for the Australia national women's cricket team. The list is arranged in the order in which each player won her Test cap. Until 2001, players making their debut in the same Test would have their cap number determined by appearance in the batting order, except for Margaret Peden who was allocated cap number one due to being Australia's captain in the first-ever Test. Since 2001, players debuting in the same Test have had their cap number determined by alphabetical order.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

Evidence profile

The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated May 2, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q16148111. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2001 and 2026.

Critical limits

The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
