On Sunday, the cricketing world bowed down before Sally Barton as she set a world record which may last for all eternity. It was Sally's debut at the international level as the Gibraltar women's team met Estonia for a T20 International. However, the debutant was the oldest player on the field. She was senior to not just all other players on the field, but anyone to ever play the game!
Sally Barton was reportedly 66 years and 334 days on Sunday -- the oldest player ever to play a T20I -- across men's and women's cricket.
