Reuben Brian Wilson (born 17 September 2006) is an Irish cricketer.
He has played for Leinster Lightning in Irish inter-provincial cricket, as well as representing Ireland at U-19 level.
Wilson began his young career at Phoenix Cricket Club in Dublin. At the age of 12 he was announced as the winner of Cricket Leinster's 2018 "Find A Fast Bowler" competition, an award previously won by Irish international Josh Little.[1]
Having moved to YMCA in 2020[2] and given a good performance in the 2022 Under-19 Cricket World Cup, Wilson was called up to the Leinster Lightning squad for the first time in July 2022.[3]
He made his professional debut aged 16 on the 16 May 2023 in the opening List A game of the 2023 Inter-Provincial Cup against Northern Knights where he took 1/80 in a loss.[4] [5]
Just two days later he took a maiden five-for as he dismissed five of the Munster Reds top six batters to return with 5/42.[6]
Wilson would only play another three games in the season after a back-injury ruled him out.[7]
Wilson has been involved in Irish representative squads since a young age, being selected in the Irish Cubs U-13 program in 2018.[8]
At the age of just 15 he was named in the Ireland U-19 squad for the 2022 Under-19 Cricket World Cup in the West Indies.[9] He took 5 wickets from 4 matches as Ireland lost the Plate Final and finished 10th.[10] [11]
