Kent Cricket have confirmed that fast bowler Nathan Gilchrist will be joining Warwickshire at the conclusion of the 2025 season.

The right-armer joined the Club ahead of the 2020 season, and in his five seasons at the Club, has made 90 appearances across all formats.

On leaving Kent at the end of the Summer, Gilchrist said: “This was an extremely tough decision for me to make, but this is the best move for me, and for my career, at this point in time.

“I’d like to thank everyone at Kent for believing in me from day one when I arrived here as a 20-year-old looking to prove myself back in 2020. I hope that I have done just that and I’m extremely proud to have been a Kent cricketer.

“I’ve made some lifelong friendships during my time at the Club, and under Adam Hollioake, I can definitely see a bright future for Kent.

“I’d also like to give a big thank you to the Kent Members and supporters for all the support that they have given me during my time here.

“It’s not quite goodbye just yet, and I’m fully focussed on ending this season on a high note. Hopefully we can make some more great memories together to go with all of the others that we’ve made over the past five years.” 

Kent’s Director of Cricket, Simon Cook said: “We’re disappointed that Nathan has chosen to not sign a new contract here and move to Warwickshire, but we wish him all the very best for the future.

“He will always be welcome back at The Spitfire Ground.”
