Australian Cricket Three Day Match: Day 3
The Queenslander was born in Yorkshire in England

One of Australia's brightest cricketing prospects in store, Matt Renshaw was born in Yorkshire, England. His family had moved to New Zealand when he was seven years old and finally shifted to Australia when he turned ten.

Renshaw was brought up in Queensland and played most of his cricket there. After impressing the national selectors with some consistent runs, the tall southpaw was named in the squad facing South Africa in 2016. Renshaw got to make his debut in the third Test of the series and gave everyone a glimpse of his immense potential and talent.

The marking point in his career, however, came when he scored a brilliant 184 against Pakistan at the SCG in 2016. He even showed character on the India tour where he skillfully faced the world-class spin duo of Ashwin and Jadeja.

Renshaw represented Australia in 10 Test matches thus far and has 623 runs to his credit.
