Tom Latham Career

Thomas first rose to prominence in 2012 when he scored 130 runs off 119 deliveries against Wellington in a List A match; he was then selected for the ODI against Zimbabwe. During New Zealand’s tour of Sri Lanka, he scored 86 runs off 63 deliveries and was named the match’s Most Valuable Player for his efforts.

Latham toured the West Indies in June 2014, scoring three half-centuries and a total of 288 runs in three Tests and two Twenty20s. In November 2014, he achieved his first test century against Pakistan by hitting 103 runs.

Tom’s skill with spin bowling was on display during the recent New Zealand tour of India in October 2017, when he scored 103 runs off 102 balls against the feared Indian spinners in an effort to save his team from defeat.

Tom Latham’s consistent excellence as a wicketkeeper has earned him the label of Brendon McCullum’s prospective long-term replacement. Latham has firmly established himself as the team’s opening batsman over the course of his career.
