Born in Nijmegen, Kooij made her ODI debut aged 21, appearing in three matches at the 1999 edition of the European Championship in Denmark.[1] She scored a duck on debut against England,[2] and also performed poorly in her two other matches, scoring five runs against Ireland and three against Denmark.[3][4] Kooij did not play another international until 2003, when she was selected in the Dutch squad for the 2003 IWCC Trophy (the qualifier for the 2005 World Cup).[1] At that tournament, she scored 115 runs from her four matches, placing her behind only Pauline te Beest and Carolien Salomons both for the Netherlands and for overall runs.[5] Kooij's best innings, 78 from 138 balls, came in the opening match against Scotland, where she opened the batting with Eugenie van Leeuwen.[6] Her innings included a 224-run stand with Pauline te Beest, which set a new record for the highest second-wicket partnership in ODIs (broken in 2009), and at the time was also the third-highest partnership overall (for any wicket).[7][8] The IWCC Trophy was Kooij's final tournament for the Netherlands, with her last ODI coming in the final match, against Pakistan.[1]
