প্রোফাইল"

Ryan Rickelton is a top-order batter hailing from South Africa. He marked his debut for the South African cricket team on March 31, 2022. In addition to his proficiency as a wicketkeeper, Rickelton has represented the South Africa U-19 team. He subsequently made his debut in first-class cricket for Gauteng against Northerns in November 2015.


Following impressive performances, including scoring 351 runs in eight matches during the 2017-18 Provincial One-day Cup and 562 runs in six matches for Gauteng in the 2017-18 Sunfoil Series, Rickelton received a selection to the Cricket South Africa Emerging squad in July 2018.
In February 2022, Rickelton assumed the role of captain for the Imperial Lions in the 2021–22 CSA T20 Challenge. Furthermore, during the same year, he inked a contract with Northamptonshire to participate in that year's County Championship.


At 25 years old, Rickelton received his first call-up to the senior national side for the T20I series against Pakistan. However, despite his selection, he didn't have the chance to display his skills in the shortest format of the game. November 2021 saw Rickelton's inclusion in South Africa's ODI squad for their series against the Netherlands. The subsequent month, he found himself named in South Africa's Test squad for the series against India. But it was in March 31, 2022, that Rickelton marked his Test debut for South Africa in a series against Bangladesh.


Rickelton also has decent experience in franchise cricket as he has represented MI Cape Town of South Africa’s own SA20 league.
