Katene Clarke is an exciting batting talented playing for Northern Districts in New Zealand domestic cricket.

Making his domestic debut across List A, first-class, and T20 cricket in 2019/20, he has already played over 110 matches and scored more than 3,000 runs, building a reputation for consistency and reliability. His potential was evident early, featuring in six matches for New Zealand at the 2018 ICC U19 World Cup alongside the likes of Rachin Ravindra and Finn Allen, with a standout 60 against a strong England attack.

Clarke’s impact at Northern Districts has been significant, earning T20 Super Smash Player of the Year honours in 2021/22 alongside Tim Seifert. He has delivered in pressure moments, from a decisive 90 in a run chase against Auckland to the only century of that Super Smash season. Last summer’s return of 282 runs at 35 showed he remains in strong touch. Versatile with the ball — able to send down seamers or leg spin — and an excellent fielder, Clarke offers value in every discipline.

In 2025, he broadened his horizons with a stint in the Netherlands for VVV, emerging as one of the Hoofdklasse’s leading run-scorers. Now, with his first UK season ahead in 2026, Clarke is focused on building on his upward trajectory and pushing towards higher honours.
