He began his career in 2009, opening for nine ODIs and five T20Is, achieving two half-centuries in the shorter format. His Test debut as a batsman saw him score 69 in the final match against the West Indies, showcasing his batting prowess. With over 11,000 first-class runs, his batting remains a strong suit, potentially leading to a No. 3 position in the Ashes.
While he always bowled occasionally, it was not until the summer of 2018, at age 32, that his bowling volume became significant. That season, he claimed 23 first-class wickets, a career high, along with 14 in List A cricket. His experience now extends to major T20 leagues like the BPL, PSL, BBL, and IPL. He notably took 20 wickets in England's domestic T20 tournament last summer.
