Career

edit

Born in Doncaster, Yorkshire, Hutton attended Worksop College in north Nottinghamshire where he was the recipient of a cricket scholarship.[1]

He made his first-class debut for Nottinghamshire against the Marylebone Cricket Club in the Champion County match at the start of the 2011 season at the Sheikh Zayed Cricket Stadium in Abu Dhabi.[2] In this match, he was dismissed in Nottinghamshire's first-innings by Steve Kirby for nine runs, while in their second-innings he was dismissed for a duck by Mohammad Nabi. With the ball, he bowled a total of 18 wicket-less overs in the match.[3] Later in that season he made his List A debut against Sri Lanka A. He scored 17 unbeaten runs in this match, while with the ball he took the wicket of Nilanka Premaratne. Hutton made a further List A appearance later in the season against Lancashire in the Clydesdale Bank 40.[4] He made his Twenty20 debut on 20 May 2016 for Nottinghamshire against Birmingham Bears in the 2016 NatWest t20 Blast.[5]

In September 2017, Hutton left Nottinghamshire to join Northamptonshire on a three-year contract in order to play more one-day cricket.[6] In June 2021, during the 2021 County Championship, Hutton took his 200th first-class wicket.[7]

Having rejoined Nottinghamshire in 2020,[8] Hutton was the leading wicket-taker in the 2023 County Championship with 62 dismissals and was named the club's player of the year.[9] He was also Nottinghamshire's top wicket-taker in the One-Day Cup in 2022 and 2023 and signed a new two-year contract with the club in February 2024.[10] His 2022 haul included a List A career-best 7/26 against Surrey.[11]
