Probable Best Bowler: Steve O’Keefe

Steve O'Keefe currently ranks as one of the top left-arm orthodox spinners in Australian white-ball cricket. His consistent ability to bowl effectively across different phases of the game distinguishes him as a truly exceptional bowler. Batters frequently find it challenging to read his deliveries, with his change of pace and clever use of the crease causing particular trouble in the BBL league. It appears likely that he will maintain his high-level performance in the upcoming season.
