			A right-handed middle order batsman and handy off-spin bowler, Poore played for [[Canterbury cricket team\|Canterbury]] from 1950–51 to 1957–58, then returned for three matches in 1961–62. His highest score was 142 opening the batting against [[Central Districts cricket team\|Central Districts]] in 1954–55, a match in which the next highest score was 55.<ref>[https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Scorecards/21/21391.html Canterbury v Central Districts 1954-55]</ref> It was the highest score in the [[Plunket Shield]] in the 1954–55 season.<ref>{{cite web\|title=Batting and Fielding in Plunket Shield 1954/55\|url=https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Events/3/Plunket_Shield_1954-55/Batting_by_Average.html\|website=CricketArchive\|accessdate=7 September 2017}}</ref> His other century was 103, opening the batting against [[Auckland cricket team\|Auckland]] in 1956-57 after taking 4 for 72 (figures of 47.2–22–72–4) in the first innings.<ref>[https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Scorecards/22/22301.html Auckland v Canterbury 1956-57]</ref> His best bowling was 5 for 27 against [[Indian Universities cricket team\|Indian Universities]] in the final match of the 1955-56 tour.<ref>[https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Scorecards/21/21854.html Indian Universities v New Zealanders 1955-56]</ref>

			Commenting on Poore's innings of 70 in his second match for Canterbury in 1950–51, [[Dick Brittenden]] wrote: "His graceful driving and easy footwork marked him out as a future New Zealand batsman, and he became one, only to disappoint his admirers regularly, by looking the best batsman in the country and getting out for small scores inexplicably and far too frequently."<ref>R.T. Brittenden, ''Great Days in New Zealand Cricket'', A.H. & A.W. Reed, Wellington, 1958, p. 139.</ref>

			==International career==
			Poore made his Test debut in March 1953 against [[South Africa national cricket team\|South Africa]] at [[Eden Park\|Auckland]]. He made 170 runs in the five-Test series in [[South Africa]] in 1953–54. He also toured [[Pakistan]] and [[India]] in 1955–56, playing in seven of the eight Tests, but scoring only 131 runs at 11.90 and taking 4 wickets at 64.25.<ref>''[[Wisden Cricketers' Almanack\|Wisden]]'' 1957, pp. 814-15.</ref>

			His best Test performances came in his first Test, when he made 45 and 8 not out and took 2 for 28 and 2 for 43.<ref>[https://cricketarchive.com/Archive/Scorecards/20/20550.html New Zealand v South Africa, Auckland 1952-53]</ref> Although he failed to make a Test half-century in his 14 matches – and in fact holds the record for the longest Test career without a half-century or a three-wicket haul – he made two hundreds in [[first-class cricket]].<ref>{{cite web\|url=http://www.cricinfo.com/magazine/content/story/429395.html\|title=Fifty-three ODIs without a fifty or a three-for\|last=Basevi\|first=Travis\|author2=George Binoy\|date=14 October 2009\|publisher=CricInfo\|accessdate=2009-10-14}}</ref>

			Like most of the New Zealand team, Poore suffered from illness during the tour of Pakistan and India. During one game, affected by his gastric medication, he went to sleep standing up in the field. In [[Bangalore]] he was bitten by a stray dog that he was removing from the field, and had to have antibiotic injections in his stomach for the next two weeks, most of them administered by his teammates in the absence of medical assistance.<ref>Richard Boock, ''The Last Everyday Hero'', Longacre, Auckland, 2012, pp. 132-33.</ref>

			==Personal life==
			Poore and his wife Rae were married for 63 years. He died at their retirement village in [[North Shore, New Zealand\|North Shore]], [[Auckland]], on 11 June 2020.<ref>{{cite news \|last1=Geenty \|first1=Mark \|title=Obituary: Former New Zealand test cricketer Matt Poore dies at age 90 \|url=https://www.stuff.co.nz/sport/cricket/black-caps/121804762/obituary-former-new-zealand-test-cricketer-matt-poore-dies-at-age-90 \|accessdate=13 June 2020 \|work=Stuff.co.nz \|date=13 June 2020}}</ref>
