Profile
Born on 12th February, 1980 in Johannesburg, South Africa, Michael John Lumb is best known for his stellar performances during the 2010 ICC T20 World Cup helping England clinch their first ever ICC world title.
The son of prolific Yorkshire opener, Richard Lumb, Michael made his bow into cricket through the junior team of Transvaal before returning to his roots in Yorkshire. He made his county debut against the visiting Zimbabwe side in 2000 and scored an unbeaten 66. A knee injury kept him out of most of 2001 though he did score his first FC century against Leicestershire. He became a regular in the side in the 2002 season and enjoyed one of his best ever stints scoring well over 1000 runs at an average of more than 40. He was named in the ECB National Academy during the winter but he failed to sustain his form for long and was axed by the Yorkshire team in 2005. He did not renew his contract for the 2007 season and instead signed on a move to Hampshire, a move that was to pay him rich dividends in the future.
The advent of T20 cricket could not have come at a better time for Lumb as he impressed the selectors during a prolific run in the 2009 FP T20 tournament and was named in the 30 man provisional team by the England Cricket Board for the 2009 Champions Trophy. Further laurels came his way in the form of inclusion in the 2010 England squad for the T20 World Cup in the Caribbean Islands. Despite not getting past 33 in any of the matches, Lumb and Kieswetter formed an aggressive partnership at the top of the order, something which helped England break their title drought at the highest level.
Lumb was noticed for his skills in the shortest format of the game and was offered a $ US 50,000 contract by Rajasthan Royals at the start of the 2010 season. He was then bought by the Deccan Chargers during the 2011 auctions, though he had very little on field action. Being proficient in the shortest format of the game has helped Lumb earn contracts with the Queensland Bulls for the 2010-11 Big Bash while the Sydney Sixers have snapped him as one of their overseas pros for the coming season. Lumb has also agreed upon a 3 year contract with Nottinghamshire for the 2011 UK domestic season. His debut season was a success as he scored more than 1400 runs across all formats. He played a key role for the Sydney Sixers in the Champions league final in South Africa, hitting a quick-fire 82 off 42 balls as his team beat the Lions by 10 wickets.
Despite being a T20 specialist, Lumb continued performing well in the domestic season throughout 2013. His hard work paid off when he was given his ODI cap against West Indies in February 2014. He hit a scintillating hundred on his ODI debut , although England lost the game. Lumb skipped the 2014 IPL auctions putting his first-class career ahead of the league. His commitment to the national side earned him a place in the 2014 World T20 squad and he did fairly well.
Interesting fact: When Lumb scored his first ever FC century in 2001, he became part of only the fourth father-and-son pair to score centuries for Yorkshire.
