Jade Dernbach - Quetta Gladiators

Jade Dernbach is a very modern cricketer. Earrings in both ears, tattoos covering each arm and words to accompany each delivery. His bowling is a merry-go-round of variations with slower-balls, quicker slower-balls, yorkers and bouncers as well as, crucially, an ability to touch 90mph. His variety, alongside a deep well of confidence that helps him hold his nerve, has made him a regular part of England’s limited-overs teams, though his penchant for over-exuberant celebrations – he has been known to run the length of the ground after getting wickets in dead first-class matches – have been widely mocked.

A spell in Australia, playing grade cricket in Sydney for Randwick/Petersham, helped to improve his all-round game and his first hint of international recognition came in 2009 when he was called up to the ECB Fast Bowling Programme in Florida and Chennai.

However, even after than 50 international appearances, he was still fighting for full acceptance. Impressive performances have been grossly outweighed by his mishaps. He has the ignominy of possessing some of the worst economy rates of all time in ODIs and T20 internationals and a desperate showing at the World T20 looked to have halted his England career in its tracks. By the end of 2014, he was not even an automatic selection for Surrey in Championship cricket, and was embarrassed to concede 56 in four overs of the T20 Blast semi-final.
