Ross Whiteley

Ross Whiteley is a left-handed batter and left-armed bowler.

He was born in Sheffield, Yorkshire and joined Hampshire following the culmination of the 2021 season.

Whiteley impressed in both domestic One-Day and T20 formats across eight years with former club Worcestershire, before making the trip down to The Ageas Bowl.

After graduating through the Derbyshire youth system, Whiteley opened his professional career on the county stage in 2008. His next First-Class opportunity came in 2011, where he averaged just over 40 and scored a couple of centuries – and then played a valuable role in the club's promotion the following season.

After representing England in the Hong Kong Sixes following the 2012 season, he moved to Worcestershire on a three-year deal.

In 2018, Ross played a key role in the Worcestershire Rapids side that made their first appearance at Vitality Blast Finals Day which ended in victory - The Rapids beating Lancashire Lightning in the Semi Final before beating Sussex Sharks by four wickets to secure their maiden T20 trophy.

After solidifying himself as a dangerous boundary-hitting batter, Ross was selected for The Ageas Bowl-based Southern Brave for The Hundred in 2021, which saw Whiteley contribute 44 not-out in the final to lead his side to win the competition's inaugural title.

He then returned to The Ageas Bowl in 2022 to join the Hawks for their Vitality Blast campaign. Showcasing his fielding skills and hard-hitting, Whiteley scored 231 runs as the Hawks secured a third T20 trophy, and their first since 2012.
