Joseph Archie Gordon (born 18 May 2002) is an Australian-born English cricketer.[1] He made his first-class cricket debut for Kent County Cricket Club against Sussex on 11 July 2021 in the 2021 County Championship[2] following a member of the county's First XI squad testing positive for COVID-19 which required the players involved in the county's previous match to all self-isolate. As a result, several Second XI players or "homegrown prospects"[3] were drafted into the squad and made their senior debuts for the county.[3][4]
Gordon was born at Coffs Harbour in New South Wales where he played under-14 cricket.[5] After moving to the United Kingdom, he was educated at St Edmund's School, Canterbury where he averaged over 100 runs an innings in 2019.[6] He was a member of Kent's cricket academy, played age-group cricket for Kent between 2016 and 2019 and the county's Second XI between 2018 and 2020 as well as club cricket for Canterbury Cricket Club in the Kent Cricket League.[7][8] He made his List A debut on 8 August 2021, for Kent in the 2021 Royal London One-Day Cup, scoring nine runs.[9][10]
