LONDON, 10 JUNE: Yorkshire’s 15-year-old pace bowler Matthew Fisher (in photo) became English county cricket’s youngest post-War player after he was handed his senior debut on Sunday.
Fisher was named in the side to face Leicestershire at Scarborough in a 40-over match, having taken six for 25 against the Foxes in a second XI match earlier this week.
Yorkshire confirmed on Twitter: "Matthew Fisher will become the youngest player to feature in a competitive county match aged 15 years and 212 days."
Fisher was originally included in the match-day squad two days ago, at which point Yorkshire’s first-team coach Jason Gillespie said: "Matthew deserves his call-up into the squad.
"We monitor the progress of all our players and the feedback I have received from (second-team coach) Paul Farbrace on the way Matthew has been playing has been excellent."
Yorkshire already hold the record for fielding the youngest first-class cricketer after wicketkeeper Barney Gibson, aged 15 years and 27 days, played in the non-county match against Durham MCCU in 2011.
