Oh brother, what’s better than having a King in your hand?
A pair of Kings!!
The Mitcham Cricket Club is very pleased to announce the signing of Matt King, brother of David, for Season 2026/2027.
With over 20 years of cricket experience playing for Clubs including Ringwood (14 Seasons), Richmond, Wantirna South and most recently as Captain / Coach at South Croydon, Matt brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to Mitcham.
Matt played 57 matches of Premier cricket making 3 x 50s and 2 centuries.
In the Lindsay Trollope Shield in the Ringwood District Cricket Association his record is:
- 74 matches
- 2,773 runs @ 41.00
- 11 x 50s
- 6 x 100s
He suffered a bad hamstring injury which limited his appearances last season but he returned in the back half of the year, and in his last 4 innings he made 399 runs (54,100,89&156) @ 99.75 which saw him awarded the competition batting average, and last night was bestowed the honour of “Captain” of the RDCA “Team of the Year” in Season 2025/2026.
We welcome Matt joining his brother at Tigerland in Season 2026/27.
