Isabella Charli Gaze (born 8 May 2004) is a Dutch-born New Zealand cricketer who currently plays for Auckland Hearts and New Zealand. She plays as a wicket-keeper and right-handed batter.[1][2]

Early life[edit]

Gaze was born on 8 May 2004 in Haarlem in the Netherlands.[2] She lived in the Netherlands for 18 months before moving to Hong Kong, then Singapore, and finally to Auckland, New Zealand.[3] At the age of 18, Gaze went to university and worked part-time after the domestic cricket season in New Zealand had ended.[4]

Domestic career[edit]

Gaze made her debut for Auckland in 2019, against Wellington in the 2019–20 Super Smash.[5] She missed much of the 2020–21 season due to a collarbone fracture.[3]

International career[edit]

Gaze was part of a New Zealand camp ahead of the side's series against India and the 2022 World Cup.[3] Following the retirement of New Zealand wicket-keeper Katey Martin after the World Cup, Gaze was awarded a central contract by New Zealand Cricket.[3][6]

Gaze earned her first call-up to the full New Zealand side in June 2022, when she was selected in the squad for the 2022 Commonwealth Games.[7] She made her Twenty20 International debut on 30 July 2022, against South Africa in New Zealand's first match at the Commonwealth Games.[8] She made her One Day International debut on 19 September 2022, on New Zealand's tour of the West Indies.[9]

In December 2022, Gaze was selected in the New Zealand Under-19 squad for the 2023 ICC Under-19 Women's T20 World Cup.[10] She scored 47 runs in her three innings at the tournament.[11]
