Pace spearhead Kane Richardson has decided to join the Melbourne Renegades for the next five seasons of the BBL after finishing as the leading wicket-taker for his former outfit Adelaide Strikers in the first 6 seasons.

Richardson scooped seven wickets in just 3 matches for the Australians during their tour of India when flown in as cover for Ashton Agar who was injured. Richardson seems like a good acquisition considering his recent form and overall success in the league considering the recent loss of Peter Siddle.

Renegades coach Andrew McDonald made the following statements about the signing: 

“It will be great to have Richo(Richardson) in red and doing an important job for us. He’s aggressive with the white ball and a very good set of hands in the field which is hugely important under the pressure of the T20 environment.”
