Sara Louise Hungerford (born 13 February 1986) is a former Australian cricketer. An all-rounder, she bats right-handed and is a right-arm medium pace bowler. After briefly playing List A cricket for Auckland during the 2006–07 season, Hungerford went on to represent the Australian Capital Territory (2009/10–2015/16) and Surrey (2012) in both List A and T20 cricket. She also played for the Sydney Sixers in the Women's Big Bash League (WBBL) during the 2015–16 season.
Hungerford was born in Sydney, New South Wales. Outside of cricket, she is a consultant physician and cardiologist. Australian Test all-rounder Greg Matthews has described Hungerford as his "guardian angel" due to her efforts in treating his life-threatening salmonellosis in 2014.
