Profile

A wicketkeeper who has chipped away on the domestic scene for Auckland for a decade, Reece Young finally won his first call-up to the national squad for the Test tour of Sri Lanka in 2009. The promotion to become Brendon McCullum's deputy came after strong performances for New Zealand A and a productive 2008-09 season in which he was Auckland's leading batsman with 557 runs at 50.63. He first showed his batting potential in 2000-01 with his maiden first-class hundred against Central Districts but only one more came before his two triple-figure scores in 2008-09.
