&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Luke Ronchi&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; ({{IPAc-en|ˈ|r|ɒ|ŋ|k|i}} {{respell|RONG|ki}}; born 23 April 1981) is a New Zealand-Australian cricket coach and a former cricketer. He represented both the [[Australia national cricket team]] and [[New Zealand national cricket team]] in international cricket,&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/magazine/content/story/149754.html |title=Greenidge&amp;#039;s final frenzy |work=ESPNcricinfo |date=12 April 2008 |access-date=25 April 2018}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; the only player to have done so in cricketing history. He was also a part of the New Zealand squad to finish as [[2015 Cricket World Cup final|runners-up]] at the [[2015 Cricket World Cup]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite news|url=https://www.firstpost.com/firstcricket/sports-news/world-cup-final-prodigal-son-luke-ronchi-returns-to-australia-with-new-zealand-2177899.html|title=World Cup final: Prodigal son Luke Ronchi returns to Australia with New Zealand|date=2015-03-29|access-date=2017-09-21}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; He played for [[Wellington cricket team|Wellington]] in New Zealand domestic matches and has played [[Twenty20]] matches for a range of teams. He retired from international cricket in June 2017.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web|title=Ronchi retires from international cricket|url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/story/luke-ronchi-new-zealand-wicketkeeper-retires-from-international-cricket-1105156|access-date=2021-06-22|work=ESPNcricinfo|date=21 June 2017 |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Born in [[Dannevirke]] in the [[Manawatū-Whanganui]] region of New Zealand, Ronchi emigrated to [[Perth, Western Australia]], with his family at an early age. He was educated at [[Kent Street Senior High School]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web | title=Volunteers to be Recognised |url=https://www.wacricket.com.au/news/volunteers-to-be-recognised-at-allan-border-medal/2009-01-30 |website=waca.com.au |access-date=4 February 2022}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; He is an aggressive batsman and fields as a [[wicket-keeper]]. He debuted for [[Western Australia cricket team|Western Australia]] in January 2002. After a period as second-choice wicket-keeper behind [[Ryan Campbell (cricketer)|Ryan Campbell]], Ronchi became Western Australia&amp;#039;s first-choice keeper after Campbell&amp;#039;s retirement in 2006. For a period of time between 2007 and 2009, he served as Australia&amp;#039;s second-choice keeper behind [[Brad Haddin]], and played several matches for [[Australia A cricket team|Australia A]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After Haddin broke his finger during the national team&amp;#039;s [[Australian cricket team in the West Indies in 2008|2008 tour of the West Indies]], Ronchi played one [[Twenty20 International]] (T20I) and four [[One-Day International]] (ODI) matches, and later played two further Twenty20 International matches against the [[South African cricket team in Australia in 2008–09#Twenty20 Series|touring South African team]] in 2009. In February 2012, Ronchi announced his intention to return to New Zealand to further his cricketing career, and signed with the [[Wellington cricket team]] the following month. He made his ODI debut for New Zealand in May 2013, becoming the first player to play for both Australia and New Zealand at international level.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ronchi made his Test debut for New Zealand in May 2015 [[New Zealand cricket team in England in 2015|against England]] scoring 88 off 70 balls.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Test debut&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.espncricinfo.com/ci/engine/match/743941.html |title=New Zealand tour of England, 2nd Investec Test: England v New Zealand at Leeds, May 29 – Jun 2, 2015 |publisher=ESPNcricinfo|date=29 May 2015|access-date=29 May 2015}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Ronchi&amp;#039;s first innings runs were critical in propping up New Zealand after a shaky start on an overcast morning in Leeds. New Zealand won the match in only their fifth win in England and their first in nearly 30 years on English soil.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite news|url=https://www.espncricinfo.com/series/11407/report/743941/england-vs-new-zealand-2nd-investec-test-new-zealand-tour-of-england-2015|title=Craig, Williamson spin NZ to famous win|work=ESPNcricinfo|access-date=2020-11-05|language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Domestic career==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ronchi is well known for his ability to score runs quickly and on 7 February 2007 he broke the record for the fastest domestic one-day hundred in Australian cricket. Opening the batting against [[New South Wales]], Ronchi scored his maiden one-day ton off only 56 deliveries, beating the previous record held by fellow West Australian [[Adam Voges]] of 62 deliveries. When dismissed, he had scored 105 runs from just 64 balls and easily guided [[Western Australia]] to an 8-wicket victory over [[New South Wales]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ronchi began the 2007–08 season in strong fashion. Proving that he is in the Australian selectors minds for the future, Ronchi was chosen as [[Australia A cricket team|Australia A]] wicketkeeper for their tour of [[Pakistan]]. In the second [[First-class cricket|first-class]] match of the tour, Ronchi scored a blistering 107 off 109 balls, striking 16 fours and 2 sixes. His good form continued into the Australian Domestic season, as he scored 104 against [[New South Wales cricket team|New South Wales]] in Western Australia&amp;#039;s first [[List A cricket|List A]] match of the season.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In November 2007 Ronchi scored one of the fastest centuries in Australian Domestic history with a ton from 51 balls against [[Queensland Bulls|Queensland]]. Ronchi struck 11 sixes in his innings of 105* with his second fifty coming from just 11 balls.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ronchi was also recruited by the [[Mumbai Indians]] team in 2007, one of the eight [[Indian Premier League]] (IPL) franchises. He played five matches for the team, spread throughout the [[2008 Indian Premier League|2008]] and [[2009 Indian Premier League|2009 tournaments]],&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Players/17/17568/Twenty20_Matches.html Twenty20 Matches played by Luke Ronchi (43)] – CricketArchive.

&lt;br /&gt;
==International career==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Australia===&lt;br /&gt;
In April 2008, [[Cricket Australia]] named [[Brad Haddin]] as the only wicketkeeper in its list of 25 contracted players, overlooking Ronchi.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://content-www.cricinfo.com/australia/content/story/345640.html Bollinger and Marsh receive contracts]; ESPNcricinfo; 9 April 2008&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Despite failing to receive a contract, Ronchi was called up to the Australian team in June 2008 during their [[Australian cricket team in the West Indies in 2008|tour of the West Indies]] when Haddin was unable to play after breaking his finger.  After making his international debut in the tour&amp;#039;s [[Twenty20]] match (scoring 36 from 22 balls opening the batting with fellow West Australian on international debut, [[Shaun Marsh]]),&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Scorecards/132/132675.html West Indies vs Australia Scorecard]; CricketArchive; 20 June 2008&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; he was not required to bat in his first two ODI matches.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the final game of the series, he was elevated up the [[batting order (cricket)|batting order]] to number three and batted very well to record the equal second fastest fifty by an Australian on his way to scoring 64 from 28 balls, including six [[six (cricket)|sixes]] and was awarded the player of the match award (later in the same match [[David Hussey]] scored an even faster fifty relegating Ronchi&amp;#039;s innings to equal third fastest).&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Brown, Alex; [https://www.smh.com.au/news/cricket/ronchi-and-hussey-blast-australia-to-record-win/2008/07/07/1215282687145.html?page=fullpage#contentSwap1 Ronchi and Hussey blast Australia to record win]; [[Sydney Morning Herald]]; 7 July 2008&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ronchi made his debut on home soil in a [[Twenty20]] match at the [[Melbourne Cricket Ground]] (MCG) against the [[South Africa national cricket team|South Africans]] as wicketkeeper when Haddin was rested from the team.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;AAP/Cooper, Adam; [https://www.canberratimes.com.au/news/local/sport/cricket/haddins-backup-ready-to-excel/1404113.aspx Haddin&amp;#039;s back-up ready to excel]{{dead link|date=January 2018 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}; 11 January 2009&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
