Over three season Badenhorst played 11 first-class and two List A matches primarily as a bowler for Central Districts before moving to play for Otago for the 2014–15 season.[3] Described as a "fringe player"[4] who was brought into the side following good batting performances for his club side,[5] Badenhorst played a further four first-class matches for the side as well as three Twenty20 matches in the Super Smash competition.[3] He played club cricket for Albion Cricket Club in Dunedin and played for club sides in England.[2][4]
