Trent Boult

Trent Boult has established himself as one of New Zealand’s premier fast bowlers, transitioning from a Test match specialist to a prolific force across all cricketing formats, delivering impactful performances on the global stage. After making his Test debut for New Zealand in December 2011 against Australia in Hobart, Trent Boult played a pivotal role in securing New Zealand’s first Test win in Australia since 1985, taking four wickets and contributing 21 runs with the bat. His One Day International (ODI) debut followed in July 2012, marking the beginning of a distinguished international career across all formats. Early in his career, Boult established himself as a left-arm fast-medium bowler renowned for his ability to swing the ball, quickly forming a formidable opening bowling partnership with Tim Southee from 2013, which became a cornerstone of New Zealand’s bowling attack.

He was named Player of the Match in the final and finished the season as the third-highest wicket-taker with 25 wickets. Boult also holds the unique record for most maiden overs bowled in a single IPL season, achieving four. After a stellar international career representing New Zealand across all formats until 2024, Boult officially retired from international cricket following the 2024 ICC Men’s T20 World Cup. He continues to actively participate in major global T20 leagues, including rejoining Mumbai Indians for the 2025 IPL season, solidifying his ongoing presence and marketability in top-tier professional cricket worldwide.
