Philip Allen Emery (born 25 June 1964) is a former Australian
Born in
Emery captained New South Wales to their 42nd Sheffield Shield title during the 1993–94 season while regular captain Mark Taylor was absent representing Australia.
He played in one Test and one ODI, both in Pakistan relieving Ian Healy who was out due to injury.[2] This makes Emery only the third wicket-keeper (together with the long-serving Healy and Adam Gilchrist) to keep wicket in an Australian Test cricket team to Shane Warne (1992–2007) and Glenn McGrath (1993–2007) during their long Test careers.
Emery's cricket career is marked by notable achievements, including his record-breaking 378 dismissals in NSW First Class cricket and an additional 81 in One-Day matches. As captain, he led NSW to their 41st and 42nd Sheffield Shield titles in the 1992-93 and 1993-94 seasons. A key player in multiple title-winning teams, Emery scored over 3,000 first-class runs, including 17 fifties and a century, averaging over 26 runs. His career is celebrated for both his leadership and skill on the field.[3]
After retiring from cricket, Emery became a corporate risk advisor and insurance broker. He is currently an Authorized Representative and a Director at Gow-Gates Insurance Brokers (Australasia) Pty Ltd.[4] He holds a Bachelor's degree in Economics and a Diploma in Financial Services, and is recognized on the Mosman Municipal Council Sporting Wall of Fame.[5]
