Player Story

Born in Durban, South Africa Kelly moved to Perth when he was four years old. The fast bowler earned a Western Warriors rookie deal for the 2016-17 season but success came the following summer when he debuted for WA in the JLT One Day Cup, taking a wicket in his first game then claiming 4-25 in the next game against Queensland. Kelly continued his dominance over the Bulls taking 5fa against Queensland in the 2017-18 Sheffield Shield. 

Standing at 193cm tall the towering quick helped his club side Claremont-Nedlands to claim victory in the Premier Cricket T20 competition in 2014-15  but is relatively new to the short form of the game.
