He was educated at Cranleigh School, England and captained the first XI cricket side for two years, playing alongside Stuart Meaker.
He is a very able leg spinner and in his last season at Cranleigh School was second highest wicket taker.
In October 2008 he was called into the Kenyan Cricket team, and made an immediate impression, scoring 75 against Ireland in the Intercontinental Cup at the Gymkhana in Nairobi, and more recently 74 against South Africa at Kimberley in a full One Day International (ODI).
[3] Waters is also a very apt fielder and took two astonishing catches in the second ODI against South Africa, that belied his age and experience, to send Gibbs and then de Villiers back to the pavilion.
Waters went to Durham University and was named in the Kenyan squad for the 2011 ICC Cricket World Cup.
