Drummond was born in Meigle, a rural village in Perthshire, and played her early cricket for Meigle Cricket Club.[1] Her older brother, Gordon Drummond, later captained the national men's team.[2] Drummond herself made her senior debut for Scotland at the age of 17, appearing in matches against Durham (an English county team) and Wales during the 2002 season.[3] Her first international tournament at a senior level was the 2003 IWCC Trophy in the Netherlands, where matches held ODI status. The second-youngest member of the squad, behind only Fiona Urquhart, Drummond played in all five of her team's matches.[4] However, she scored only nine runs from five innings, which included ducks against Ireland and the Netherlands.[5]
The 2003 IWCC Trophy is Scotland's most recent ODI tournament to date, with Drummond being only one of 17 women to have played at that level.[6] Her next international tournament was the 2005 European Championship in Wales, where she was Scotland's equal leading runscorer with Kari Anderson.[7] After that tournament, Drummond took a break from international cricket for several years, not appearing again until the 2014 European Championship in England.[3] She played for Scotland in English domestic competitions in 2014 and 2015,[8] and was selected in the national squad for the 2015 World Twenty Qualifier.[9]
Drummond married fellow Scotland cricketer Abbi Aitken in June 2019.[10]
