Position Wicketkeeper
Batting Style Right Hand
Bowling Style Does Not Bowl
Country Australia

Talented young ‘keeper-batsman Sam Harper made his debut for the Melbourne Stars in BBL|06 against the Hobart Hurricanes.

Playing five games last season, Harper’s keeping abilities were crucial with the absence of Peter Handscomb to national duties.

Harper also broke into Victoria’s Sheffield Shield squad late last season and exploded onto the scene with a record nine dismissals on debut.

A freak accident in just his second Shield game saw the right-hander taken to hospital with a heavy concussion after he was inadvertently struck on the helmet by the bat of Jake Lehmann. Harper spent three weeks in hospital and showed enormous character on his road to recovery.

Season 2017-18 and BBL|07 represent a fresh start and raft of opportunities for the former Australian Under 19 representative.

Harper comes from a sporting family, which includes his uncle, Laurie, who was Victorian Player of the Year in 1997-98.

Off the field, Harper loves playing golf and is studying teaching at university.
