Domestic career

Kyle Jamieson grew up playing sports in New Zealand and attended Auckland Grammar School. He was part of New Zealand’s squad for the 2014 ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup. In his youth, he also trained as a basketball point guard but chose cricket because he was skilled as a fast bowler. Jamieson debuted in Twenty20 for Canterbury in December 2016 during the Super Smash tournament. In January 2019, he recorded six wickets for seven runs in a T20 match, one of the best bowling performances in New Zealand history, and ended that Super Smash season as the leading wicket-taker with 22 wickets in ten matches. In October 2020, Jamieson took a hat-trick in the Plunket Shield, showing strength in longer formats.

Though mainly seen as a Test bowler, Jamieson switched between Canterbury and Auckland during his domestic career. Injuries kept him out for much of 2023, but he returned late that year. In the 2024–25 Super Smash, Jamieson took 14 wickets in 12 games and helped Canterbury reach the final. His strong form led to a call-up for the Champions Trophy after Lockie Ferguson suffered an injury before the tournament.
