A wicket-keeping all-rounder, left-handed “Pebbles” is a batter who looks to hit from ball one and has primarily been used in the shortest form of the game for Ireland so far.
The wicketkeeper-batter has been singled out for the big time since very early in his career but is yet to get a long stint in the Ireland team.
His strengths are down the ground and into the legside, but he is also a classy stroke-maker and is someone to keep your eye on as he grows into his career.
