Rita Scott is a former Jamaican cricketer who represented the West Indies women's cricket team between 1979 and 1997. She played as a wicket-keeper.
Scott made her debut for the West Indies on their 1979 tour of England, as back-up wicket-keeper to Yolande Geddes-Hall. She played a total of five matches on tour, mostly against regional teams, and did not feature in any of the international games.[1] For various reasons, the West Indies women's team played no international fixtures during the 1980s, only returning to international competition at the 1993 World Cup in England.[2] At the World Cup, Scott was appointed vice-captain to Ann Browne, a Trinidadian. She made her One Day International (ODI) debut in the first match of the tournament, against India, but was dismissed for a three-ball duck.[3][4] She made four runs in the next match, a loss to the Netherlands, and also had the Dutch captain Nicola Payne out stumped, from the bowling of Cherry-Ann Singh.[5] In the following game, against Australia, Scott was forced to retire hurt while batting.[6] She would play no further part in the tournament. Scott was retained in the West Indian squad for the 1997 World Cup in India, but made only a single appearance, in the ninth-place play-off against Denmark.[4] Coming in fourth in the batting order, she scored 66 runs from 108 balls, putting on 155 runs for the fourth wicket with Carol-Ann James (a new team record).[7]
