Ocean Bartlett is one of New Zealand’s most exciting young spin bowling all-rounders – representing New Zealand U19 Women, NZ Maori Schoolgirls, and debuting for the Central Hinds at just 17 years old.
Originally hailing from the Waikato, Ocean moved to Aitutaki Cook Islands when she was seven, spending three years there before moving to the Wairarapa. Ocean was a “late comer” to cricket – spending her childhood playing as many sports as possible, including; Softball, Volleyball, Swimming and Netball.
Ocean is now studying at the University of Canterbury, juggling her love for cricket with a double degree (Bachelor of Laws & Bachelor of Arts majoring in Sociology and minoring in Te Reo Maori).
The Hinds’ star has enjoyed quite the career to date, skippering the New Zealand Maori Secondary Schoolgirls (2021), St Matthew Collegiate (2020-21), and Central Districts U19s (2020-21), helping guide the latter to national U19 titles in two of the last three seasons.
She has, to date, represented the Hinds in 5 Hallyburton Johnston Shield (List A), and 16 SuperSmash (T20) matches, and was part of the New Zealand Development team that played against India and the West Indies. This summer (2023/24), she has also featured against Pakistan for a New Zealand XI, and was a stand-out for the New Zealand Maori Women in the Women's T20 Pacific Cup.
Off the field, Bartlett is a keen, and practicing coach with YEAH!girls coaching qualifications. She is a Smash Play Youth Ambassador which helps to promote cricket, and make the game accessibly for youngsters.
Ocean is a serious prospect – a leg-spinner and middle-order batter with a big future. In order to continue her development, she is set to spend a summer plying her trade abroad.
A highly rated youngster showcased her talent in Ireland last summer. Playing for Rush Cricket Club in the Leinster Cricket League she excelled and is set for a return in 2025.
