Now some of the domestic players I have written enough about for you already.
David Hussey who you can read about pretty much anywhere on this blog.
But here, here, here and here are my favs.
Cameron White is so lucky he has a player profile written about him, the only player profile I ever wrote, must have been bored sh1teless that day.
Others like Luke Ronchi and Ashley Noffke have snippets about them, but probably not much more.
So why not start there.
Luke Ronchi, is fairly new on the scene. He follows Ryan Campbell and Adam Gilchrist as hard hitting, tidy, if not brilliant wicketkeepers from Western Australia, who will probably play for Australia.
Not an overly big bloke, but he does hit a huge ball. Was born in New Zealand, but I have already forgiven him for this. Would probably be my pick for Australian gloveman rather than Haddin, but Haddin does have the runs on the board. Like all Western Australian boys he likes short bowling, and can swing across the line beautifully.
Holds some sort of record for fastest Australian domestic hundred, and once belted Stuart Clark so hard Stuart questioned his sexuality. Actually that was probably the same innings come to think of it.
Anyway the boy can bat the house down, and would have been one of the first gloveman in all of world cricket I would have picked for the IPL. Scores at a huge rate in both forms of real cricket. Has a rather odd demeanor, it’s almost as if his head is too big for his body.
But that just adds to the charm, or something like that.
He hasn't made runs yet, but he will cut loose once this tournament, I hope....
