Samantha Ketipe


Samantha Ketipe is a Sri Lankan-born Italian cricketer. He is a right-handed batsman and a right-arm offbreak bowler who has represented Italy since 2002.
Ketipe first represented Italy at a 2002 European Championship warm-up match, making his debut against Austria, and taking three wickets in an eight-over bowling spell. He performed well in 2002, despite the Italian team being relegated into Division Two.
However, the Italians were immediately to be re-promoted to Division One, finishing top of the 2004 table and undefeated, and, two years later, Ketipe was once again to excel in the top division. Most recently, Ketipe is an upper-middle order batsman for the Italian side.
