Fiona Elaine Urquhart (born 20 August 1987) is a Scottish international cricketer who debuted for the Scottish national side in 2000. An all-rounder, she has appeared in all eight of the One Day International (ODI) matches that Scotland has played to date.
Urquhart was born in Aberdeen, and began her career at the city's Stoneywood Dyce Cricket Club. She was first called up to the national squad shortly before her thirteenth birthday, playing two matches against English county teams (Durham and Yorkshire) during the 2000 season. The following year, Urquhart was selected in the Scottish squad for the 2001 European Championship, where Scotland was appearing at ODI level for the first time. She went on to play in all three of her team's matches, going runless and wicketless against England and Ireland, but taking 2/19 against the Netherlands and also scoring nine runs. At the time of her ODI debut, Urquhart was 13 years and 355 days old, making her the second-youngest debutant after Pakistan's Sajjida Shah. Two other players, Lucy O'Reilly and Elena Tice, have since played at younger ages, both representing Ireland.
At the 2003 IWCC Trophy in the Netherlands, Scotland's next major international tournament, Urquhart again appeared in all of her team's matches. She took 1/26 against Pakistan and 1/8 against Japan, but was wicketless in the other matches. Her highest score, 16 runs from fourth in the batting order, came in the opening match against the Netherlands. The IWCC Trophy is Scotland's most recent ODI tournament to date, with Urquhart being one of only three players (along with Kari Anderson and Kathryn White) to feature in every ODI played by the team. At the 2005 and 2007 European Championships, Scotland's next major events, Urquhart appeared in all but one match, although she had little success in either year.
