Jay Doctora (27) is a talented batting all-rounder playing both Premier cricket in South Auckland, and international Associate cricket for the Philippines.
A middle-order batter who bowls off-spin, Doctora currently plays in the Counties Manukau Premier Competition for Pukekohe Metro, with whom he joined from Grafton United (Auckland Premier Cricket) in 2022/23.
At club level, he won bowler of the year for Grafton's Premier Reserves (26 wickets at 16.69), was the finals MVP, and helped win the Major Championship in 2021/22 prior to his move South. Last summer, having taken the step up to Premier Men's cricket, he enjoyed further success, this time being a key component of Pukekohe's T20 Championship, and reaching the One Day finals of the Spark Competition (Counties Manukau, Hamilton, and Waikato Valley Competitions).
Courtesy of his Filipino heritage, the dual New Zealand and Philippines' Passport holder, was recruited to play for the latter in the 2023 South East Asian Games against the likes of Indonesia, Cambodia, Singapore, Thailand and Malaysia. Roll on May 2023 and he would play all 6 T20 international matches in the East Asia Pacific Regional T20 World Cup qualifiers against Papua New Guinea, Japan, and Vanuatu.
The youngster, who now boasts 10 T20I caps to his name, is looking to spend a season plying his trade in the EU throughout the 2025 season. Not only a talented all-rounder, but a keen, and NZC level 1 accredited coach, who is looking to fully integrate in a coaching capacity next summer.
Doctora is looking for a club offering a strong level of cricket for his development and is someone that comes recommended, both for his on and off field exploits.
