Shane Edward Bond (born 7 June 1975 in Christchurch, New Zealand) is a New Zealand cricketer. He has represented New Zealand in Test match, One Day International and Twenty20 International cricket as well as playing for Canterbury in New Zealand domestic cricket and Warwickshire in English domestic cricket. Bond is a right-arm fast bowler. Bond's career has been plagued with injuries, chiefly recurring stress fractures of the back. He had surgery in 2004 to try and prevent further injury, but it was only partially successful. In recent years he has suffered back problems, knee injuries and an abdominal tear. These problems, in conjunction with a late start to his fully professional cricket career, have limited his appearances in both international and domestic cricket. Since his debut in the 2001/02 season, he has only managed to appear in 17 Test matches for New Zealand. His international career is currently on hold, and may possibly be finished,after he initially signed for, and consequently played for the Delhi Giants in, the 'rebel' Indian Cricket League during March 2008, causing the New Zealand cricket board to terminate his central contract in January 2008. His decision to take part in the Indian Cricket League has also affected his future in domestic cricket, it was unclear as to whether he would be able to fulfill a contract to play cricket in England for Hampshire during 2008.He is now eligible to play for Hampshire returning career best figures of 7-66 on his debut.
