Matthew Carter (born 26 May 1996) is an English professional cricketer who plays for Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club.[1] Matt has 2 brothers, Will and Andy who both play high level cricket in Lincolnshire for Bracebridge Heath Cricket Club.

Career[]

He took figures of 10/195, including 7/56 in the first-innings, on his first-class cricket debut for Notts against Somserset on a turning pitch in June 2015.[2]

"from a tall classical action with flight, bite and composure, Carter returned the best figures by a spin bowler on Championship debut since Leicestershire's Jack Walsh claimed 7 for 46 against Northamptonshire in 1938"[3]

He made his List A debut for Nottinghamshire in the 2018 Royal London One-Day Cup on 27 May 2018.[4] He made his Twenty20 debut for Nottinghamshire in the 2018 t20 Blast on 17 August 2018.[5] He was drafted by Trent Rockets for the inaugural season of The Hundred.[6]
