Isabelle Mary Geraldine Westbury (born 8 March 1990) is a sports broadcaster, former international cricketer and President of the Oxford Union. She was captain of Middlesex for two seasons and was a member of the Western Storm squad in the Kia Super League, having previously played for the England Women's Academy. A right-handed batsman and off break bowler, she played for Somerset until 2012.

She was President of the Oxford Union in 2011 and has been described as "the most engaging president that the Oxford Union has had in years".

Born in Hammersmith, London, Westbury experienced a nomadic childhood, living in Mongolia, Sakhalin, Malaysia, Easter Island, the Antarctic and Syria before moving to the Netherlands in her early teens.

She attended The British School in the Netherlands until 2006. It was in the Netherlands that she first started playing cricket, after being prevented from playing club football alongside boys beyond the age of 13. Turning to cricket instead, Westbury played boys cricket for The Hague Cricket Club, and was picked for the national side aged just 14, making her first appearance at the 2004 Women's European Under-21 Championships. At 15 she made her senior international debut at the 2005 Women's European Championship. During this tournament, she also made her only ODI appearance, playing for the Netherlands against Ireland.
