Cooper Patrick Leonard Connolly Profile
Cooper Connolly, is an emerging Australian cricketer known for his all-round abilities as a left-handed batter and slow left-arm orthodox bowler. Representing Western Australia in interstate cricket and the Perth Scorchers in the Big Bash League, Connolly has quickly established himself as one of the most promising young talents in Australian cricket.
Connolly's leadership qualities became evident early in his career when he was appointed captain of the Australia Under-19 team for the 2022 ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup. His captaincy was further highlighted by his role as the leader of the Western Australia Under-17 cricket team, demonstrating his ability to inspire and lead from the front. His performances on the field were equally impressive, with his tactical acumen and skillset drawing attention from domestic and international scouts alike.
In August 2022, Connolly was signed by the Perth Scorchers for the 2022–23 Big Bash League season, marking the beginning of his professional T20 career. He made his debut for the Scorchers on 7 January 2023 against Brisbane Heat, and his contribution in the final was crucial, scoring 25 runs off just 11 balls to help secure the Scorchers’ victory, showcasing his composure and ability to perform in high-pressure situations.
His List A debut came later that year on 24 September 2023, when he represented Western Australia in the 2023–24 Marsh One-Day Cup against Queensland. Connolly's growth as a cricketer was further exemplified by his first-class debut for Western Australia in the 2023–24 Sheffield Shield final against Tasmania, where he scored a solid 90 runs in the first innings, signalling his potential to excel in the longer format of the game.
In July 2024, Connolly’s rapid rise was rewarded with a call-up to Australia’s T20I squad for their upcoming tour of England and Scotland. He made his T20I debut against Scotland on 7 September 2024, before earning his first ODI cap on 29 September 2024 in a match against England. As a dynamic young player with a natural flair for both batting and bowling, Connolly’s future in international cricket looks bright.
