Matthew Carter (born 26 May 1996) is an English cricketer.[1] He took 7-56 and 3-139 for a match return of 10-195 bowling off-spin on his first-class cricket debut for Nottinghamshire County Cricket Club in June 2015.[2]

from a tall classical action with flight, bite and composure, Carter returned the best figures by a spin bowler on Championship debut since Leicestershire's Jack Walsh claimed 7 for 46 against Northamptonshire in 1938.[3]
