Sam Hain
cricketer (born 1995)
Samuel Robert Hain (born 16 July 1995) is a cricketer who plays for Warwickshire County Cricket Club and represents England. He is a right-handed batsman who bowls right-arm off spin. He made his debut for the county in the 2013 Yorkshire Bank 40 against Worcestershire.
Early life and youth career
Hain was born in Hong Kong to two British parents. His family settled on Australia's Gold Coast when Hain was three years of age and there he began playing cricket for the Mudgeeraba-Nerang Cricket Club. He was raised in the Australian beachside city until the age of 14 when he relocated to Scotland on an exchange program with the Loretto School in Musselburgh, East Lothian. He was fast-tracked into Australian Under-19 cricket side as a 16-year-old. As a Loretto School student, he was spotted by former Warwickshire captain Michael Powell, who was coaching there. He returned to the Gold Coast for Year Twelve education where he completed his schooling at The Southport School.
Hain was sent for trials at Warwickshire where former England all-rounder Rikki Clarke rated his new colleague's batting in the nets as the best he had ever seen.

Why this record matters
The phrase “cricketer (born 1995)” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 4, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q16228341. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1995 and 2013.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
