Harry Gurney
A former England, Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire bowler, Harry Gurney represented his country in a number of ODIs and T20 matches, establishing himself as one of the finest bowlers in the country. Since retiring in 2021, Harry has worked as a popular cricket after-dinner speaker sharing fascinating anecdotes with audiences everywhere.
Harry’s professional career began with Leicestershire in 2007, and he particularly shone in the T20 format of the game. Primarily deployed as a left-arm seamer, he was an extremely talented bowler. In 2012, he signed for Nottinghamshire, featuring in the County Championship for his hometown team. Establishing himself as an integral part of the side, in his capacity as one of the most popular cricket speakers Harry can talk at length about his successful domestic career.
Regarded as something of a one day specialist, in 2014 he made his England debut in an ODI against Scotland. From here, he played in several ODIs and T20 games, frequently taking wickets against formidable batsmen. When hired as a cricket speaker, he can chat with audiences about what it was like playing for his country at such a high level.
From 2019 onwards, he concentrated on his T20 franchise career playing in Australia, Pakistan, India and Barbados. Having spent time playing the sport in different countries, his stories of this time make for a fascinating listen.
Unfortunately, Harry had to retire from the sport in 2021 due to persistent shoulder injuries and has transitioned into keynote speaking and is a regular on Sky Sports commentating on domestic cricket fixtures. Hugely popular among audiences, Harry’s great sense of humour, commanding stage presence and natural charisma makes him a hit time and time again.
Harry Gurney is one of the most accomplished cricket speakers in the business and has the ability to enhance any event he attends.
