Barbara Mary McDonald (born 28 May 1972) is a former Irish international cricketer whose career for the Irish national side spanned from 1993 to 2005. A right-arm pace bowler, she played a single Test and 57 One Day International (ODI) matches for Ireland, appearing at the 1993, 1997, 2000, and 2005 World Cups.
McDonald was born in Waterford, but played her club cricket for Malahide, in County Dublin. She made her Irish senior debut at the age of 21, playing twice in the 1993 World Cup in England, against the Netherlands and the West Indies.〔(Women's ODI matches played by Barbara McDonald ) – CricketArchive.

In July 2000, Pakistan visited Ireland to play five ODIs and a single Test match, the latter of which was Ireland's first and only appearance at that level.〔("Ireland Women too good for Pakistan" ) – ESPNcricinfo. Retrieved 4 October 2015.〕 In the third ODI, McDonald took career-best figures of 4/8 from 6.4 overs, including the last four wickets to fall.〔(Ireland Women v Pakistan Women ), Pakistan Women in British Isles 2000 (3rd ODI) – CricketArchive. Retrieved 4 October 2015.〕 She continued her good form when the Test began the next day, taking the first three Pakistani wickets to fall and finishing with figures of 3/9 from 12 overs. She added 1/19 in the second innings as her team won by an innings and 54 runs.〔(Ireland Women v Pakistan Women ), Pakistan Women in British Isles 2000 (Only Test) – CricketArchive.

McDonald had her greatest personal success as a player at the 2003 IWCC Trophy in the Netherlands, where she was named player of the tournament.〔Peter Johnson (11 August 2003). ("Winning the IWCC Trophy 2003" ) – CricketEurope.

Now aged 32, McDonald remained one of her team's opening bowlers, and again played every match, finishing as equal leading wicket-taker with Heather Whelan.〔(Bowling for Ireland Women ), International Women's Cricket Council World Cup 2004/05 – CricketArchives. Retrieved 4 October 2015.〕 She played her final international matches later in the year, at the 2005 edition of the European Championship.〔 McDonald finished her career as Ireland's leading wicket-taker in ODIs, although she has since been overtaken by Isobel Joyce.〔(Ireland Women / Records / Women's One-Day Internationals / Most wickets ) – ESPNcricinfo.
