Shane Edward Bond (born 7 June 1975 in Christchurch, New Zealand) is a New Zealand cricketer, described as "New Zealands best fast bowler (Fast bowling) since Sir (Knighthood) Richard Hadlee". He has represented New Zealand (New Zealand cricket team) in Test (Test cricket), ODI (One Day International) and Twenty20 International cricket as well as playing for Canterbury (Canterbury Wizards) in New Zealand domestic cricket and Warwickshire (Warwickshire County Cricket Club) in English domestic cricket. Bond is a right-arm fast (fast bowling) bowler.
Bonds career has been plagued with injuries, chiefly recurring stress fractures of the back. He had surgery in 2004 to try and prevent further injury, but it was only partially successful. In recent years he has suffered back problems, knee injuries and an abdominal tear. These problems, in conjunction with a late start to his fully professional cricket career, have limited his appearances in both international and domestic cricket. Since his debut in the 2001/02 season, he only managed to appear in 18 Test matches for New Zealand. Bond retired from Test cricket in December 2009 at the age of 34.
His international career also suffered a hiatus of 18 months, due to Bonds involvement with the Delhi Giants in, the rebel Indian Cricket League during March 2008, which caused the New Zealand cricket board (New Zealand Cricket) to terminate his central contract in January 2008. However, in June 2009 Bond severed ties with the rebel league and declared himself available to be selected for the national side once again. In January 2010, Bond was selected to play in the 3rd season (Ipl 3) of the Indian Premier League for the Kolkata Knight Riders. As of 13 May 2010 he has since retired from all forms of the game and is not planning to continue in the 4th season (Ipl 4) of Indian Premier League.
