Career edit

Carey was a member of the victorious Southern Stars squad that won the 2012 ICC World Twenty20 title in Sri Lanka. Carey was part of two ICC World Twenty20 in 2012 and in 2016.[4]

She made her Women's One Day International cricket (WODI) debut for Australia Women against India Women on 12 March 2018.[5] Although she bowled well, and was praised by the team's coach, Matthew Mott, as having had "a fabulous debut", she did not take any wickets in her 10 overs, and was not required to bat. Her teammate Alyssa Healy commented that "... it was probably one of the most unlucky debuts I've ever seen."[6]
