About Shaun Humphries

  • Shaun Humphries (born 11 January 1973) is a former English cricketer.
  • Humphries was a right-handed batsman who fielded as a wicket-keeper.
  • He was born at Horsham, Sussex. Humphries made his first-class debut for Sussex against Cambridge University in 1993.
  • Due to the presence of regular wicket-keeper Peter Moores in the Sussex side, which limited his appearances for Sussex, it wasn't until 1996 that Humphries next featured for the county against Cambridge University.
  • Two further first-class appearances followed in 1997, against Oxford University and Pakistan A.
  • Following the retirement of Moores early in the 1998 season, Humphries featured extensively in both the 1998 and 1999 County Championship's.
  • However, with Nicholas Wilton seen as a superior batsman to Humphries, this meant that he featured in just two first-class matches in 2000, against Warwickshire and New Zealand A.
  • In total, he made 31 first-class appearances for Sussex, scoring 555 runs at an average of 13.21, with a high score of 66.
  • This score was one of two half centuries he made and came against Kent in 1998.
  • Behind the stumps he took 56 catches and made 3 stumpings. Humphries made his debut in List A cricket for the county in 1998, against Glamorgan in the Benson & Hedges Cup.
  • He made 32 further List A appearances for the county, the last of which came against Gloucestershire in the 2000 Benson & Hedges Cup.
  • In his 33 List A appearances for the county, he scored a total of 85 runs at an average of 6.53, with a high score of 16.
  • Behind the stumps he took 21 catches and made 13 stumpings.
  • He left Sussex at the end of the 2000 season.
