Alec van der Kruit is such an exciting prospect currently progressing through the Easterns ranks in South African provincial cricket.

A schoolboy prodigy, van der Kruit's love for the game started aged 6. He would go on to star at both Primary and Secondary School, then transfer this success into Provincial cricket for Easterns.

Van der Kruit started playing for Easterns at U13 level, having earned a cricket bursary to attend Jeppe High School, before representing the Province at every age group up to U19s.

In 2018 (Grade 11), van der Kruit averaged 62 with the bat throughout the calendar year, including 2 centuries for Jeppe 1st XI.

The following year, he was mentored by Fanie de Villiers (Ex-SA fast bowler) before gaining KwaZulu Natal Inland Academy inclusion for their Academy and Colts programs (2020).

Van der Kruit now has high aspirations to secure a professional contract with the Tuskers this summer before exploring options abroad in 2024.

A young, and incredibly hard-working cricketer, van der Kruit represents an outstanding recruit for any club this summer.

There are no overseas stats available for this player.
