A right-handed batsman and a medium pacer by trade, Marcus Stoinis, is an Australian all-rounder. Powerfully built, Stoinis can torment bowling attacks and clear any boundary with ease. Capable of opening the batting, playing in the middle order or coming in to finish an innings while also providing a reliable bowling option, Stoinis has been a crucial part of Australia’s white-ball setup.
Stoinis was a member of the Australian side that featured in the 2008 Under-19 World Cup in Malaysia, a team that included players like Steven Smith, Phil Hughes, James Pattinson, Josh Hazlewood and James Faulkner. At 19 years of age, Stoinis made his debut for Western Australia in January 2009. However, he couldn't quite become a permanent fixture in the playing eleven and decided to move to Victoria for the 2012-13 season.
On the recommendation of former teammate Theo Doropoulos, he decided to play for the Northcote Cricket Club in the Victorian Premier Cricket competition. Soon, things started to change for Stoinis as he enjoyed phenomenal success at Northcote. He smashed four centuries in 2013/14, averaging a massive 100 for the season.
With the kind of form Stoinis was in, his selection in the Victorian state team was inevitable and he was soon named in Victoria's Sheffield Shield squad. He didn't disappoint the Victorian selectors one bit, scoring a magnificent 170 against Tasmania, an innings that cemented his place in the Victorian top-order.
He was the top run-getter for Victoria in the 2014/15 Sheffield Shield season. He amassed 785 runs at an average of 49.06 during the summer. He was also a part of the Australian A outfit that visited India in July 2015. Stoinis, who made 77 and took 2/18 in the first four-day game against India A, was rewarded with a place in the national squad for the ODIs and the lone T20I against England in August-September 2015.
With time, he matured as a batsman, while his bowling was always handy. He opened the batting for Melbourne Stars in the 2018-19 BBL. He was a part of Australia’s 2019 World Cup squad and had a poor run with the bat, scoring 83 runs from 8 innings but had decent returns with the bal as he picked up 7 wickets. He continued to be a part of Australia’s white-ball setup in the following years and was a part of Australia’s T20 World Cup winning squad in 2021. He retained his spot in the 2022 T20 World Cup and had some impactful performances. Leading up to the 2023 Cricket World Cup, Stoinis was named in Australia’s 15-member squad.
IPL through the years
One of the premium qualities which isn't available in abundance in the Indian premier league is the 'bonafide all-rounders'. Marcus Stoinis belongs to that rare breed of cricketers who can bat anywhere in the batting order, bowl useful overs, both at the start and the end of a T20 innings and is a gun fielder. It is these qualities that prompted the Royal Challengers into entering a trade with the Kings XI Punjab ahead of the 2019 edition of the Indian Premier League. A late bloomer by international standards, Stoinis is a powerfully built man - who has the ability to clear any ground with his brutal hitting process.
Signed by Delhi Daredevils in 2015, he didn't feature in the franchise's plans and was later bought by Kings XI Punjab in the subsequent auctions. Although his international record was on the upward curve, it didn't really translate into significant performances for the Mohali-based outfit. Nevertheless, the promise of a big future meant that they used their right to match card to grab him off RCB's hands - despite the move costing them 6.2 crores - during the 2018 IPL auction. Another average season though meant that KXIP had reasons to off-load their prized asset - when RCB came calling once again in 2019, they were happy to trade him for homebred Mandeep Singh.
Stoinis went to play in different leagues, including for the Southern Brave in The Hundred and for the San Francisco Unicorns in the inaugural season of the MLC.
