Australia won the series, which makes Satterthwaite's gift all the more gracious and demonstrates the spirit of cricket.

Amy became the captain of the New Zealand's 'White Ferns' in October 2018. An all-rounder of exceptional skill, Amy has played 119 ODIs and 99 T20s for New Zealand.

In the 2016/17 season she became only the second player, behind Kumar Sangakkara, to score four ODI centuries in a row.

Bradman Museum's Executive Director, Rina Hore said "We acknowledge Amy's generous donation as it is important to grow our contemporary artefacts within our collection.

There has been a historical gap, and the museum's objective is to be a trusted source, central archive and authoritative resource for Australian cricket, and the history of women's cricket is a vital facet of the game's heritage."

To assist with this work, notable former Australian players, Lisa Sthalekar, and Karen Hill (nee Price) are heading up a Women's Cricket Heritage project for the museum which includes volunteers and former Australian and NSW players.

One of the outcomes of this research will be to build a public display in time for the ICC T20 World Cup, held in Australia throughout February and March next year.

The Women's Cricket Heritage Project team, launched 2018, are currently undertaking the vital work of researching, cataloging, preserving and digitising the history of women's cricket, meeting monthly at the Bradman Museum, in Bowral Australia.

The Executive Director added "The quality and quantity of women's cricket related objects has grown significantly over the past three years and we have catalogued in excess of 1500 items in the past 12 months.

The work to date has been funded by the Bradman museum and recently the NSW government. We would welcome any support, volunteers or donations to assist with this vital work."

Amy Satterthwaite's uniform will be on display from April in the museum's International Cricket Hall of Fame.
