Sam Northeast. 16/10/1989. Kent CCC
Sam Northeast first made an impression at the tender age of 13, whereby he scored 19 hundreds in a term, before at the age of 14 representing Harrow 1st XI, where he more than held his own. He made his Kent debut in 2007 against Durham in a Championship match, but only managed 5 and 0.
However, he burst onto the scene during the 2009 season, where his impressive performances at the top of the Kent order have highlighted him as a probably England star in the future. He is still only 19, and representing England at that level. His consistent run-scoring at youth levels will stand him in good stead for the future, where he will no doubt come up against some of the players he has scored heavily against for the under-19 side. His current first class record stands at 5 matches, 237 runs, an average of just below 30, with two fifties and a highest of 87. A record that will undoubtedly be improved upon very soon indeed. Remember the name.
