Career
He has also been Australia"s Test wicket-keeper since the second test of 2015 Ashes series. He made his Twenty20 International debut for Australia against South Africa on 4 March 2016. Playing as a wicket-keeper, Nevill played for the Australian under-19 cricket team, and made his first-class début for New South Wales against Victoria at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in February 2009.
In that match, Nevill made 18 and 0 and took one catch.
Nevill was selected to go to England for the 2015 Ashes series, and made his Test debut for the second Test at Lord"s after Brad Haddin made himself unavailable for selection due to family reasons. Nevil finished with seven catches on debut, and seven dismissals overall, to be tied for second for catches overall, but an Ashes debut record.
He also scored 45 runs in the first innings, just missing his first half-century on debut, however he went on to score 57 in the second innings of his third Test at Edgbaston. On January 9, 2016, Nevill made his debut for Melbourne Renegades as teammate Matthew Wade, Australia"s limited-overs wicket-keeper was called up for international duties.
Nevill ran himself out after Adam Zampa was hit on the nose off his deflection from a shot from Dwayne Bravo, as it went on to hit the stumps.
On 9 February, 2016, a day after Australia lost the Chappell-Hadlee series to New Zealand, Nevill was named as the wicketkeeper of choice for Interstate Commerce Commission World T20 after Matthew Wade is dropped for poor glovesmanship, but given his modest batting average, but buoyed by a deep T20 batting lineup, he is not under pressure to also carrying a load as a batsman.
