Sheffield Sheild: After impressive performances, all-rounder Hayden Kerr earns a full New South Wales contract
Kerr made a half-century on his first-class debut against Victoria followed by 88 against Tasmania. He also emerged as Sydney Sixers’ player of the season in the Big Bash League.
“Hayden Kerr was one of the stars of the Australian domestic summer and he has thoroughly deserved his opportunity for a Blues contract. He is 25 and wasn’t even on a rookie deal last year so it goes to show if you work hard and produce the right performances when given a chance, anything is possible,” said Michael Klinger, NSW’s head of male cricket, as reported by ESPNcricinfo.
Apart from Kerr, fast bowler Ryan Hadley was also handed over a full-time contract with New South Wales.
“Our focus on development and growth will further allow these players and others like Ryan Hadley, who earned an upgraded contract, to continue their progression to have a long term sustainable professional cricketer career,” said Michael Klinger.
