There has been quite a lot of player movement in the winter for Shield season 2021/22.
QLD BULLS:
No surprise the Shield champs have kept the bulk of their squad together for their title defense, with the exception of paceman Brendan Doggett and Nathan McSweeney.The club tho has bid sayonara to both Corey Hunter and Benji Floros.
Not sure why the selectors let Nathan McSweeney leave given his two strong Premier Cricket seasons on the trot. Averages something like @70 last year. I recall James Bazley as the bloke that helped polish the close fielding skills of Marnus when the two shared a unit some years ago. Dead set Bazley w'd push food items off a kitchen bench and Marnus w'd attemp to catch them before they hit the floor. Will Prestwidge joins his siblings in a Bulls shirt in making the Bull's rookie list. IMHO QLD has the country's best crop of young quicks in Bartlett, Edwards, Prestwidge, Willans and Sully.
In: James Bazley, Will Prestwidge
Out: Brendan Doggett (SA), Nathan McSweeney (SA), Corey Hunter, Benji Floros delisted
Squad: Xavier Bartlett, James Bazley, Joe Burns, Max Bryant, Blake Edwards, Sam Heazlett, Usman Khawaja, Matthew Kuhnemann, Marnus Labuschagne*, Michael Neser, Lachlan Pfeffer, Jimmy Peirson, Matt Renshaw, Billy Stanlake, Mark Steketee, Bryce Street, Mitch Swepson, Jack Wildermuth, Jack Wood. Rookies: Jack Clayton, Will Prestwidge, Connor Sully, Matthew Willans.
Tasmania Tigers:
The TCA has made several squad changes for the new season with the retirement of Alex Doolan the most notable omission. Sydney-born opener Tim Ward is favored to take the Doolan opening spot. Allrounder Brad Hope has joined from WA while teenager Nivethan Radhakrishnan, an opening batter and ambidextrous spinner has joined from Sydney.
In: Brad Hope, Nivethan Radhakrishnan
Out: Alex Doolan, Keegan Oates, Alex Pyecroft, Tom Rogers, Jack White
Squad: Tom Andrews, Gabe Bell, Jackson Bird, Iain Carlisle, Jake Doran, Nathan Ellis, Caleb Jewell, Ben McDermott, Riley Meredith, Lawrence Neil-Smith, Tim Paine*, Sam Rainbird, Peter Siddle, Jordan Silk, Mac Wright, Matthew Wade, Charlie Wakim, Tim Ward, Beau Webster. Rookies: Jarrod Freeman, Brad Hope, Mitch Owen, Nivethan Radhakrishnan
WA:
West Aussie have retained the bulk of their squad with only bats Jake Carder (South Australia) and Brad Hope (Tasmania) chasing their chances elsewhere. Off-spinner Corey Rocchiccioli has been upgraded from a rookie deal, while leg-spinner Liam O'Connor has been delisted.
Ins: Corey Rocchiccioli, Cooper Connolly, Bryce Jackson
Outs: Jake Carder (SA), Brad Hope (TAS), Liam O'Connor
Squad: Ashton Agar*, Cameron Bancroft, Jason Behrendorff, Hilton Cartwright, Cameron Gannon, Cameron Green*, Liam Guthrie, Aaron Hardie, Josh Inglis, Bryce Jackson, Matthew Kelly, Mitch Marsh, Shaun Marsh, David Moody, Lance Morris, Joel Paris, Josh Philippe, Jhye Richardson*, Corey Rocchiccioli, D'Arcy Short, Marcus Stoinis, Ashton Turner, Sam Whiteman. Rookies: Cooper Connolly, Sam Fanning, Jayden Goodwin, Bryce Jackson.
NSW BLUES:
Finally the Blues clueless selectors have run with a youth policy with Lachlan Hearne, Ryan Hackney, Baxter Holt, Oliver Davies and Tanveer Sangha gaining full status. Davies looks to be a specialist white baller. Hearne is a stylish left hander, Hackney opens, Holt looks to be next cab off the rank with the gloves while Tanveer Sangha has the ability to be an all format player. Have been following Arjun Nair's career since his first Premier Cricket days as a 15 year old prodigy. Perhaps another cricketer that found the pressure of expectation suffocating.
In: Oliver Davies, Lachlan Hearne, Baxter Holt, Tanveer Sangha
Out: Nick Larkin, Nathan McAndrew (SA), Arjun Nair, Daniel Solway
Squad: Sean Abbott, Harry Conway, Trent Copeland, Patrick Cummins*, Oliver Davies, Ben Dwarshuis, Jack Edwards, Mickey Edwards, Matthew Gilkes, Ryan Hackney, Josh Hazlewood*, Liam Hatcher, Lachlan Hearne, Moises Henriques, Baxter Holt, Daniel Hughes, Nathan Lyon*, Peter Nevill, Kurtis Patterson, Daniel Sams, Jason Sangha, Tanveer Sangha, Steve Smith*, Mitchell Starc*, Chris Tremain, David Warner*, Adam Zampa*. Rookies: Josh Baraba, Ryan Hadley, Jack Nisbet, Hunar Verma
VICS:
The Vics have made only minor changes to their list for this season, with left-hander James Seymour – who made his Shield debut late last summer – earning a full contract after dominating at club level in Melbourne. Former Australia U-19 representative Patrick Rowe has lost his rookie deal, while pace bowler Fergus O'Neill has been added to the rookie list.
In: James Seymour, Fergus O'Neill
Out: Patrick Rowe
Squad: Scott Boland, Xavier Crone, Travis Dean, Zak Evans, Aaron Finch*, Jake Fraser-McGurk, Seb Gotch, Peter Handscomb, Sam Harper, Marcus Harris, Mackenzie Harvey, Jon Holland, Nic Maddinson, Glenn Maxwell*, Jonathan Merlo, Tom O'Connell, Wil Parker, James Pattinson*, Mitchell Perry, Will Pucovski, James Seymour, Matt Short, Will Sutherland. Rookies: Brody Couch, Sam Elliott, Tom Jackson, Cameron McClure, Todd Murphy, Fergus O'Neill.
SACA REDBACKS:
SACA had to be ruthless after the Redbacks shocker last season. But why go shopping interstate instead of backing the home grown product. They have done this by handing the Kelly twins, Corey and Tom rookie status. I have seen these two play both in white and red ball and they are rather exciting with both bat and ball. Watch this space.
In: Brendan Doggett, Nathan McSweeney, Nathan McAndrew, Jake Carder, Sam Kerber, Ryan Gibson
Out: Callum Ferguson (retired), Chadd Sayers (retired), Tom Cooper, Brad Davis, Conor McInerney, Luke Robins, Cameron Valente.
Squad: Wes Agar, Alex Carey*, Jake Carder, Brendan Doggett, Daniel Drew, Ryan Gibson, David Grant, Travis Head, Henry Hunt, Sam Kerber, Jake Lehmann, Nathan McAndrew, Joe Mennie, Harry Nielsen, Tim Oakley, Lloyd Pope, Kane Richardson*, Liam Scott, Jake Weatherald, Nick Winter, Daniel Worrall. Rookies: Jordan Buckingham, Bailey Capel, Kyle Brazell, Corey Kelly, Thomas Kelly
