Nottinghamshire First-Class debut: 29 August 2024 v Surrey

South African international wicketkeeper Verreynne first signed for Nottinghamshire on a short-term deal to cover three of the final four matches of the 2024 campaign, before agreeing longer subsequent contracts for the entirety of the 2025 and 2026 Championship seasons.

He made his First-Class debut for Western Province in January 2015, still aged only 17, and after a run of five seasons out of six in which he consistently averaged above 50, including a stunning 2020-21 that saw him notch 680 runs at an average of 97.14, he received a Test call.

Verreynne first came to Trent Bridge three years after that, by which time he had increased the total number of runs he had scored in First-Class cricket to over 5,000, including more than 700 at Test level.

He struck 50 not out against champions Surrey in his first Nottinghamshire innings, and went on to total 248 runs across four visits to the crease, being dismissed just once, and signed off with a sumptuous unbeaten 148 against Warwickshire.

The right-hander would go on to be crowned a County Champion at the conclusion of his second stint at Trent Bridge in 2025, contributing exactly 500 runs and claiming 39 wicketkeeping victims.

However, it was with only six of those 500 that he forever wrote his name in the annals of Nottinghamshire history, as his pulled maximum over long-on off Nathan Gilchrist in the final game of the season against Warwickshire formally secured Nottinghamshire their seventh County Championship crown.
