Amelia Kerr (born 13 October 2000) is a New Zealand cricketer.[1] She made her international debut for New Zealand against Pakistan on 9 November 2016.[2]
On 13 June 2018, Kerr made the highest individual score in a WODI match, and became the youngest cricketer, male or female, to score a double century in One Day International cricket, when she scored 232 not out against Ireland, which coincidentally was the area code of her home suburb of Tawa. The double century was also the third-highest individual score, male or female, in an ODI.[3][4] Later in the same match, she also took 5/17, her first five-wicket haul in WODIs.[5][6]
Kerr's grandfather, Bruce Murray, played Test cricket for New Zealand.[7] Her cousin, Cilla Duncan represented New Zealand (Football Ferns) at international football.[8]
