Reece Young
DOB: 15/09/1979
Playing style: Wicket-keeper
Batting style: Right-hand bat
The Auckland-born keeper waited patiently for more than a
decade, accumulating runs and keeping things tidy behind the stumps
before finally receiving a Test call-up for the Pakistan series in
January 2011. It proved an easy step up for a man of his vast
experience, and his patient 57 in just his second Test helped the
Black Caps out of a dire position. One of the most consistent
run-scorers in domestic cricket and a precise gloveman, Young is a
smart and respected cricketer with over a 100 first class games to
his name, and has plenty more cricket left in him despite his
advancing years.
