(b.
August 18 1983 in
Bairnsdale ,
Victoria ) is an
Australian Cricket er.
A powerful middle order
Batsman and occasional right-arm
Leg-spin Bowler , White made his
First-class Cricket debut as a teenager in the
2000-01 season for the
Victorian Bushrangers . This brought comparisons to leg-spinner
Shane Warne , the leading wicket-taker in Test history, and team mate in the Victorian state team. However, White's bowling style is more reminiscent of Indian leg-spinner
Anil Kumble with little spin and a reliance on top-spinners and googlys. White's progress as a bowler has stagnated in recent years and he is currently viewed to be a batting all-rounder.
White first represented Australia at Under-19 level in January 2001 at the age of 17. In January-February 2002 he captained the Australian team to victory in the
ICC Under-19 World Cup in
New Zealand .

After touring Pakistan with the Australia 'A' team in September 2005, White made his full international debut in the following month against the ICC World XI in the Johnnie Walker Super Series in
Melbourne . He was previously selected on the cancelled
2004 national team tour of
Zimbabwe . He was chosen as the
Supersub in the first two matches, and played in the final, however he had no chance to bat or bowl, except in the second match in which he bowled 4 overs without a wicket. He was selected to play in the
Chappell-Hadlee Trophy matches against
New Zealand in December 2005, where he made his full starting debut.
He became the captain of Victoria at 20- the youngest player to do so in the state's long first-class history - and is widely tipped to be an Australian Test player of the future. It is anticipated that he will play a role similar to that of the
Pakistani allrounder
Shahid Afridi , a strongly-built big hitting late-middle order batsman, with some useful quickish legspin which concentrates on bowling topspinners rather than legbreaks.
White joined
Somerset for the 2006 English domestic season, alongside fellow Australian
Dan Cullen (South Australia). This county stint proved valuable for his development as a cricketer. He is the scorer of the two highest scores in Twenty20 history and in August 2006 his 260 not out against Derbyshire was the highest ever individual score in the fourth innings of a first-class match. He returned to Somerset in 2007 as one of their overseas players.
During the 2006 calendar year, White played a total of 32 games of cricket (1st class, ODI and A List), making approximately 3,000 runs at an average of over 50 in all 3 forms of the game during this period of time.
