Ryan Neil ten Doeschate (Dutch pronunciation: ['tɛn 'dusxɑːtə]; born June 30, 1980) is a Dutch professional cricketer who has represented the Netherlands at both One Day International (ODI) and Twenty20 International (T20I) level. Considered "one of the finest players the non-Test world has ever produced",[2] he has been named ICC Associate Player of the Year on a record three occasions, in 2008, 2010, and 2011. Ten Doeschate holds the highest batting average in ODI cricket by a batsman with more than 20 innings.

Born and raised in South Africa, ten Doeschate signed with Essex CCC for the 2003 English season, qualifying under the Bosman ruling through his Dutch (and hence European Union) citizenship. A right-handed all-rounder, he first represented the Dutch national team at the 2005 ICC Trophy, and has since played a number of other tournaments for the side, including the 2009 World Twenty20 and the 2011 World Cup. At the latter tournament, ten Doeschate scored 119 runs against England, the first ODI century by a Dutch player against a full member of the ICC. Ten Doeschate now lives in Loughton.

At domestic level, ten Doeschate first established himself as a regular for Essex during the 2006 season, and was named the team's limited-overs captain for the 2014 season. He has also represented a number of professional Twenty20 sides in other countries, including franchises in Australia's KFC Twenty20 Big Bash, the Bangladesh Premier League, the Indian Premier League, New Zealand's HRV Twenty20, South Africa's MiWay T20 Challenge, and Zimbabwe's Stanbic Bank 20 Series. Ten Doeschate's domestic commitments have prevented him from playing regularly for the Netherlands, with his most recent international match coming in 2011.

Early career

He matriculated at Fairbairn College in Goodwood, near Cape Town in 1998. While at school, he excelled at both rugby and cricket.

Domestic career

In 2003, Gooch was on tour with Essex in South Africa and saw ten Doeschate's talent for the first time in a match against a Western Province second XI. Against Essex, he first excelled with the ball in a four-day game.

He then did well with the bat in a one-dayer. It did not take long for Gooch to talk to old friend Peter Kirsten one of the Western Province coaches who mentioned ten Doeschate's EU citizenship passport that would make him eligible to play in England.

In 2008, ten Doeschate became one of the cornerstones of a strong Essex team and enjoyed success with them by winning the Friends Provident Trophy and Pro40 Division 2. During a Clydesdale Bank 40 match against the Derbyshire Falcons, ten Doeschate managed 109 not out as the Essex Eagles won on the Duckworth-Lewis method.

In 2010, ten Doeschate led the batting averages for Essex in England's Friends Provident t20 this year, making 296 runs in six matches at an average of 59.20. He also had best economy-rate for his side, conceding 6.81 runs an over, though he bowled only 11 overs.

In 2010, he signed with Tasmania[3] for the Twenty20 Big Bash in 2010/11. He was joined Pakistan fast bowler Rana Naved-ul-Hasan as Tasmania's two international players the season.

Ten Doeschate was declared the Most Valuable Player the last time he played in the tournament for Canterbury[4] in the 2010/11 season with 284 runs from nine games to be the second-highest run-getter in the league.

He was also their joint fourth-highest wicket-taker, with 12 wickets in nine games at an average of 17.66 and played a key role in their wins over Wellington and Otago early in the competition.

In January 2011, ten Doeschate was picked by the Kolkata Knight Riders team in the IPL 2011 Auction for $150,000. ten Doeschate also was the first Associate player to win an IPL contract. His selection made ten Doeschate the second Dutch player after Dirk Nannes to play in the Indian Premier League.

In 2011, he smashed 121 not out off 58 balls to lead Mashonaland Eagles to the final of the Stanbic Bank 20 Series. Ten Doeschate's hundred helped Eagles beat Matabeleland Tuskers by 23 runs on the Duckworth-Lewis method in the qualifying final and set up a clash with Mountaineers. He struck eight sixes and six fours in his innings and was unperturbed by wickets falling at the other end.

In 2012, he signed Otago Volts in the HRV Cup, New Zealand's T20 league.[5] During the season ten Doeschate finished second on the runs-scorer list with 401 runs in 10 innings at an average of 50.12.

In 2013, in the Bangladesh Premier League, The Kings needed one batsman to take charge, and after Brendan Taylor left that responsibility was taken by ten Doeschate. Ten Doeschate finished as the second highest run-scorer of the tournament. The form of Ravi Bopara had initially led to ten Doeschate being benched; ten Doeschate held firm, and in the crucial moments, his stylish shots came out readily when required. Even when wickets were falling at the other end, and he was struggling with his timing, ten Doeschate had an answer case in point, the second semifinal against the Sylhet Royals when he struck a vital 44 off 28 balls to steer the Kings home, and into the BPL final.

In 2013, ten Doeschate and Hamish Rutherford produced exhilarating performances with the bat as Essex beat Scotland by 125 runs at Chelmsford. The home side reached 368 for 7 to record their highest 40-overs total before their opponents responded with 243 for 8. ten Doeschate thrashed his way to 180 as his best limited-overs score for the county while New Zealand international Rutherford powered his way to 110 on his Essex debut with the pair posting 230 in 22.1 overs, a new county record for the fourth wicket in List A matches.

International career

In successive innings in international matches for The Netherlands in the ICC Intercontinental Cup competition in 2005 and 2006 he scored 84, 158, 138, 100 and finally 259 not out in the victory over Canada in December 2006. This latter innings set a new record for the competition, breaking the mark of 247 established by Bermuda's David Hemp earlier in the same tournament.[6]

Ten Doeschate was selected in the Netherlands squad for the 2007 Cricket World Cup. In a warm-up match prior to the World Cup, he captured five wickets against a strong India team. His haul included the wickets of Sourav Ganguly, Virender Sehwag, Yuvraj Singh and Mahendra Singh Dhoni.[7] He followed this up by scoring 57 runs off 74 balls.

In the opening match of the 2009 ICC World Twenty20, he contributed to the shock defeat of the host nation England by the Netherlands by bowling opening batsmen Ravi Bopara and Luke Wright and being the not out batsman with a score of 22.[8]

October 2010, ten Doeschate was named Associate and Affiliate Player of the Year at the ICC Awards in Bangalore. He had previously won this award in 2008. During the qualifying period, he made one century and three half centuries in ODIs.[9] Ten Doeschate won over Afghanistan's Mohammad Shahzad and the Irish duo of Trent Johnston and Kevin O'Brien. In 2011 he was chosen ahead of Afghanistan fast bowler Hamid Hassan and the Irish centurions in the 2011 Cricket World Cup, Paul Stirling and Kevin O'Brien, during the awards ceremony in London.

In a game against Ireland, ten Doeschate became the third player after AB de Villiers and Sachin Tendulkar to score two centuries in the 2011 Cricket World Cup. The 121-run stand between ten Doeschate and Peter Borren is the highest for the fifth wicket for Netherlands in ODIs.

On 14 November 2017, ten Doeschate was recalled to the national set up after almost a six-year international absence in order to help the Dutch qualify for the 2019 Cricket World Cup.[10]

In February 2018, the International Cricket Council (ICC) named ten Doeschate as one of the ten players to watch ahead of the 2018 Cricket World Cup Qualifier tournament.[11]
