Tjade Groot

Tjade Heico Groot (born 22 January 1973) is a former Dutch international cricketer who represented the Dutch national side between 1997 and 2004. He played as a right-handed top-order batsman, occasionally opening the batting.

Groot was born in Amsterdam, and played his club cricket for VRA.[1] Having earlier represented the national under-19 team, he made his senior debut for the Netherlands on a tour of South Africa in early 1997.[2] Later in the year, Groot was named in the Dutch squad for the 1997 ICC Trophy in Malaysia, although he played in only a single match (the fifth-place play-off against Denmark).[3] He continued to play occasional matches for the team over the following years, but not at any international tournaments.[2] In 2002 and 2003, Groot played matches for the Netherlands in the C&G Trophy, an English domestic competition where matches held List A status.[4] His final appearance for the national team came in February 2004, on another tour of South Africa.[2]
