Josephine Erin Dooley (born 21 January 2000)[1] is an Australian cricketer who plays for the South Australian Scorpions in the Women's National Cricket League (WNCL). A right-handed wicket-keeper-batter, she also plays for the Melbourne Renegades in the Women's Big Bash League (WBBL).[2]

Dooley made her WNCL debut on 18 February 2018, playing for the Queensland Fire in a 31-run loss to the Western Fury.[3][4] She managed a breakout performance in the first match of the following season on 21 September 2018, finishing with an unbeaten half-century to help her team secure a one-wicket win over New South Wales.[5][6]

In the lead-up to WBBL|04, Dooley sustained a broken finger injury, delaying her maiden Big Bash appearance.[5] She debuted for the Brisbane Heat on 26 December 2018 in a five-wicket victory against the Perth Scorchers at Optus Stadium,[7] and would go on to be a member of the championship team which defeated the Sydney Sixers in the final on 26 January 2019 at Drummoyne Oval.[8]

On 19 May 2019, the Melbourne Renegades announced the signing of Dooley for WBBL|05, providing her with the chance to establish herself as a wicket-keeper—a position already occupied by Beth Mooney at the Heat.[9] Her strongest contribution of the season came in a four-wicket semi-final loss at Allan Border Field against her former team, top-scoring for the Renegades with 50 not out off 42 balls.[10]

Ahead of the 2020–21 WNCL season, Dooley departed Queensland and joined South Australia.[11][12] She recorded her maiden century on 19 March 2021, scoring 116 from 112 balls in a 61-run win against Tasmania.[13]
