Cricketer Curtis Campher, born in South Africa on April 20, 1999, represents Ireland and the Munster Reds. Curtis Campher, born in Johannesburg and raised in South Africa, and played for the national Under-19 team until early 2020, announced his intention to transfer to Ireland and try out for the senior team there. At the beginning of that year, he joined the Ireland Wolves on a tour of Namibia, and his performance there earned him a spot in the team for a three-game ODI series against England in July.
Campher, a short-seam bowling all-rounder, would love to bat in the top six. After spending his first summer as an adopted Irishman playing for Leinster Lightning, he transferred to Munster Reds in preparation for the upcoming 2021 domestic season. However, ankle surgery slowed him down. While conversing with him during a warm-up match for the 2019 World Cup Qualifier, long-time Ireland wicketkeeper Niall O’Brien learned that Campher qualified because his grandmother was raised in Derry.
