Player Story
An agile gloveman and a proven match-winner with the bat, Alex Carey is a one of the most well-rounded players in Australia.
The classy left-hander was a driving force behind Adelaide’s Championship BBL|07 season, at the time setting a new club record for the most runs by a Striker in a single summer highlighted by an outstanding century against the Hurricanes at Adelaide Oval. His form was promptly rewarded by Australian selectors and he's cemented himself as Australia's first-choice wicketkeeper.
Carey leads the Strikers for wicketkeeper dismissals.
