Profile

Glenn Phillips is a compact, muscular hitter, known for playing outrageous shots, like the reverse pull. Born in South Africa, Phillips moved to New Zealand with his family at the age of five and has come through the cricket set-up in Auckland. He is a multi-dimensional player, who bats, bowls fastish offspin, fields superbly inside the ring and in the outfield, and keeps part-time as well.

Although he made his T20I debut for New Zealand in 2017, he only cemented his place in the white-ball sides in 2020, using regular appearances in the CPL to hone his skills. In November 2020 against West Indies, he scored a 46-ball T20I century, then the fastest for a New Zealander, and he finished 2021 with the most sixes in T20s that year. Batting primarily in the middle order, Phillips was instrumental in New Zealand's run to the 2021 T20 World Cup final, and played an unforgettable innings in the 2022 edition - a 64-ball 104 against Sri Lanka in a match in which the other 19 batters combined to score 149 runs off the bat. He kicked off 2023 with a counterattacking half-century from No. 7 against Pakistan that clinched New Zealand's first ODI series win in the subcontinent since 2008.

- Glenn Phillips was first picked in the IPL by Rajasthan Royals in 2021, and played just three games.

- Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) picked him up for INR 1.50 crore in 2022

- In IPL 2023, Phillips played his most significant knock in the competition, smashing 25 off just seven balls to help SRH complete a thrilling last-ball chase against his old team.

- He did not get a game in 2024, but was picked up for INR 2 crore by Gujarat Titans in the IPL 2025 auction. A groin injury picked up as a substitute fielder ruled him out of the rest of the 2025 season. GT retained him for 2026.
