Michael Bates is one of the most popular and richest Cricketer who was born on October 10, 1990 in Frimley, Frimley, United Kingdom. Michael David Bates (born 10 October 1990) is an English cricketer. Bates is a right- handed batsman who plays as a wicket-keeper. Bates is regarded by some as England’s best wicket-keeper, but consider his batting is not up to the same standards.

After trials at Essex, he signed for Minor Counties team Wiltshire. However, after the retirement of Craig Kieswetter due to injury, an out-of-form Alex Barrow and an injury to second choice ‘keeper James Regan, after playing in a trial match for the second II, Bates signed a monthlong contract with Somerset in June 2015. He made his debut for the county in the first-class match against Nottinghamshire. His contract was extended to the end of the 2015 season on 5 July 2015 on the recommendation of Somerset’s Director of Cricket Matthew Maynard, but was not extended beyond that, and he was released. He subsequently rejoined Wiltshire for 2016.

Bates was born at Frimley, Surrey, and was educated at Lord Wandsworth College, Hook, Hampshire. He joined Hampshire’s under-10 academy team, and progressed through their youth ranks. Bates represented the England U-19 cricket team, playing one Youth Test match and ten Youth One Day Internationals. Bates played for England in the 2010 U-19 Cricket World Cup.

Bates made his first-class debut for Hampshire against Oxford University at University Parks, Oxford in 2010. Bates was an integral part Hampshire’s team that won the 2010 Friends Provident T20. Veteran keeper Nic Pothas’ injury meant that Bates played a lot of matches in 2011, and whilst his batting was rarely needed his tidy work behind the stumps and especially the pressure he created standing up to the likes of Dominic Cork and Chris Wood was vital to winning. For the 2013 season, Hampshire signed wicket keeper/batsman Adam Wheater from Essex, which limited Bates to mainly T20 and second II cricket for the following two seasons. As a result, he was released at the end of the 2014 season on expiry of his contract.
