Burke was born in Dublin, and played her club cricket for Clontarf.[1] Her international debut came at the 1993 World Cup in England, although she played in only a single match (against Australia), and neither batted nor bowled.[2] Burke did not return to the national team until July 2000, when she played the first three matches of a five-match One Day International (ODI) series against Pakistan.[3] She batted only in the second of those matches, scoring 24 runs from 36 balls,[4] and did not again play at international level.[3] There was a gap of six years and 364 days between Burke's first and second ODI appearances, the longest between ODIs for an Irishwoman.[5]
