Career


Domestic Career


Sheldon Jackson made his List-A debut for Saurashtra against Baroda at Vadodara on February 16, 2006. Unfortunately, he could not impress much. Opening the innings for Saurashtra, Sheldon lost his wicket after scoring four runs off 22 deliveries. However, he worked hard on his game and has scored 2,096 runs in 58 List-A innings so far. His strike rate in this format is 82.19.


Jackson received his maiden T20 cap against Maharashtra on October 21, 2009. Again, Sheldon could not perform well on his debut. He batted at number three for Saurashtra and departed after scoring only two runs. But just like List-A format, Sheldon concentrated more on his batting in T20 cricket and has scored 1,240 runs in 56 innings now. His batting average in the game’s shortest format is 25.83.

Talking about his numbers in the longer format of the game, Sheldon Jackson has aggregated 5,634 runs in 76 first-class matches. His highest score is 186, whereas he has scored 19 centuries and 27 half-centuries with the willow for his team. Recently, he switched from Saurashtra to Puducherry.

He remained unbeaten on 12* off five balls as he helped KKR win by seven wickets. So far, he has played four IPL matches, scoring 38 runs at a strike rate of 122.58.

Background


Hailing from Bhavnagar, Sheldon Jackson made a name for himself in first-class cricket with back-to-back centuries in the quarterfinal and semifinal of the 2012-13 Ranji Trophy. He has represented the India ‘A’ team. However, an international cap has eluded him. After staying away from the IPL for three seasons, Sheldon earned another deal from Kolkata Knight Riders Team in 2021, thanks to his fantastic performances for Puducherry. It will be exciting to see if he makes the most out of this golden chance.
