Jhye Avon Richardson (born 20 September 1996) is an Australian cricketer.[1] He's a right-arm fast bowler, and says that, due to his height (178cm) and frame ("70 odd kilos"), he was initially discouraged by coaches to become a pacer, a role generally associated with taller and weightier cricketers.[2] He made his List A debut for Western Australia on 21 October 2015 in the 2015–16 Matador BBQs One-Day Cup.[3] In December 2015 he was named in Australia's squad for the 2016 Under-19 Cricket World Cup.[4] On 16 January 2016 he made his Twenty20 debut for the Perth Scorchers in the 2015–16 Big Bash League.[5] He made his first-class debut for Western Australia on 15 March 2016 in the 2015–16 Sheffield Shield.[6]

International career

In February 2017 Richardson was named in Australia's Twenty20 International (T20I) squad for their series against Sri Lanka.[7] He made his Twenty20 International (T20I) debut for Australia against Sri Lanka at Kardinia Park, Geelong on 19 February 2017.[8]

In January 2018, he was named in Australia's One Day International (ODI) squad for their series against England.[9] He made his ODI debut for Australia against England on 19 January 2018.[10] Later in the same month, he was named in Australia's Test squad for their series against South Africa, which started in March 2018. However, he did not play.[11]

In April 2018, he was awarded a national contract by Cricket Australia for the 2018–19 season.[12][13]
