Timm van der Gugten
Timm van der Gugten (born 25 February 1991) is an Australian–Dutch international cricketer who made his debut for the Netherlands national team in January 2012. He was born in Australia, and has also played for several teams in Australian domestic cricket.
Born in Sydney, van der Gugten made his first-class debut for New South Wales in November 2011. He was called up to the Dutch senior team early the following year, for the 2011–12 Caribbean Twenty20, and subsequently made his One Day International (ODI) and Twenty20 International debuts in March 2012, aged 21. A right-arm pace bowler, van der Gugten has been a regular for the Netherlands since his debut, and represented the team at the 2014 World Twenty20. At domestic level, he switched to Tasmania for the 2012–13 Australian season, and has also made appearances for two Twenty20 franchises – the Hobart Hurricanes in Australia's Big Bash League and the Northern Knights in New Zealand's Georgie Pie Super Smash.
Van der Gugten was born in Sydney to a Dutch immigrant father. He holds a Dutch passport, but in a 2014 Daily Telegraph article was described as "speak[ing] very little Dutch". Educated at St Pius X College, van der Gugten made his first-grade debut for the University of NSW Cricket Club at the age of 15, in November 2006. At the time of his debut, only six players had appeared in first-grade Sydney Grade Cricket at an earlier age.
A former state under-17s and under-19s player, van der Gugten made his Futures League debut for the New South Wales under-23s in September 2010, aged 19. His first-class debut for the senior state team came in November 2011, in a Sheffield Shield fixture against Western Australia. Van der Gugten played two further matches in his debut season (a Ryobi One-Day Cup game and a second Shield fixture), but for the 2012–13 season switched to Tasmania. He made his debut for that team in February 2013, playing two Ryobi One-Day Cup matches. However, van der Gugten made no senior appearances for Tasmania over the following two seasons, and eventually lost his Tasmanian contract prior to the 2015–16 season.
Van der Gugten signed with the Sydney Thunder for the inaugural 2011–12 edition of the Big Bash League, but did not play a game. He switched to the Hobart Hurricanes the following season, but did not make his debut until the 2014–15 edition, playing a single match against the Adelaide Strikers. In November 2015, van der Gugten signed with the Northern Knights, a franchise in New Zealand's Georgie Pie Super Smash. He replaced the injured Ben Laughlin as one of the team's two international players for the 2015–16 season, and took two wickets from his three matches.
In February 2016, van der Gugten signed a three-year contract with Glamorgan in English county cricket.
He was signed by Trent Rockets for the first season of The Hundred.
Van der Gugten signed a three-year contract extension with Glamorgan in September 2024.
