Kyle Jamieson

Jamieson was born and bred in Auckland. He even plays domestic cricket for them now, but it was during his time at Canterbury that he first rose to the national spotlight. The right-arm quick, playing in the 2019 Super Smash, picked up 6 for 7 in four overs. Those figures are a New Zealand T20 record, and they have been bettered by only three men in the entire world.

Jamieson made his international debut in February 2020 against India and was one of the key players in an incredibly close match at Eden Park. He has since been viewed as an asset for New Zealand in all forms of cricket and has been especially potent in Test matches. He took two five-fors in his first four matches and has also shown a lot of competence with the bat as well. Although he has only begun his career, the heights he might reach already look scary.

- Kyle Jamieson made heads roll when he was signed up for a whopping INR 15 crore at the IPL 2021 auction by Royal Challengers Bengaluru, the second-costliest buy that season

- He had a middling season, managing just nine wickets in nine innings and was released. Recurring injuries kept him out of IPL for four years before he made a comeback in IPL 2025 as a replacement player for Punjab Kings

- Jamieson picked up five wickets in four games for PBKS, in a season where they made it to the final, but he wasn't retained. Jamieson was picked up by Delhi Capitals for his base price of INR 2 crore before IPL 2026.
