Chris Green’s story is an unlikely one. He was born in Durban, had a British Passport, and captained the Guyana Amazon Warriors last season in the CPL, but he hopes to one day play for the Australian Cricket team. Green has been a common feature for Sydney Thunders, who used his off-spin in the Powerplay overs to great effect. Since the 2015/16 BBL, Chris Green is rated as on the most economical spinners in the league, finding himself amongst the likes of Rashid Khan and Sunil Narine.

Green bowled at his economic best in the CPL last season, conceding at a paltry economy of 6.3.  It will be interesting to see how Green pairs up with Pakistani mystery spinner Shadab Khan in CPL 2019.
