Graeme van Buuren, the experienced South African all-rounder, has penned a new deal with Gloucestershire. He will now remain with the club through the 2027 season. This new agreement provides Van Buuren an additional year with the team. The past nine years, he’s played a huge role in their success.
At 35, Van Buuren has been given the freedom to express himself and has really established himself as Gloucestershire’s key player. In that time, he’s racked up an astonishing 5,855 runs and taken 160 wickets. Adams’ unique defensive prowess should not be understated, as the concept of 76 total catches against the club in question while matched up as a defender seems incredible. In addition to this, Van Buuren captained the team for three seasons before starting this year.
Having made his debut at the club as a teenager, the all-rounder was delighted to be able to extend his journey with Gloucestershire.
“The last 10 seasons at the club have been nothing short of phenomenal for both myself and my family,” – Graeme van Buuren on the club website.
Van Buuren has been an essential force on the field, as well. Perhaps most significantly, his work ethic has earned him the fierce loyalty of fans and teammates. He reflected on his experiences, noting,
“It’s been an incredible journey filled with unforgettable moments, and I’m truly grateful for all the support over the years.”
Gloucestershire’s management is pleased to secure Van Buuren’s services for another year. His experience and pragmatic skills have been assets to the team. They fuel the team’s quest for even greater success in future competitions.
The club has played an enormous role in Van Buuren’s life, dictating his career path and his life outside of work. As he prepares to build on his debut season with Gloucestershire, supporters will be looking out for more sensational performances from the young all-rounder.
