About Amelia

A double-century in international cricket is a big deal, a once in a lifetime thing. A fifer is rare enough. Imagine getting them both in the same game. Amelia Kerr managed this feat, at 17 years of age!

The daughter of two First Class cricketers and the granddaughter of Bruce Murray, a Kiwi Test player, she started off as a leg-spinner, who often opened the batting in school cricket. In 2016, she made her international debut, and impressed immediately with her all-round abilities.

She's been at the peak of her powers over the last three years: playing a stellar role in Mumbai Indians' WPL 2023 win, following it up with a T20 World Cup win for New Zealand while bagging the ICC Cricketer of the Year award in 2024 in the process, and capping it off with a Purple Cap in WPL 2025 in another title-winning campaign.

The Blue and Gold has been the home of quite a few ODI double-centurions, and Kerr fits in perfectly. We simply weren't letting her get away at the 2026 Mega Auction!
