Jesse Ryder
DOB: 06/08/1984
Playing Role: All-rounder
Batting Style: Left-hand bat
Bowling Style: Right-arm medium

The man dubbed "the next Martin Crowe" possesses the imposing presence of Chris Cairns, the eye-catching strokeplay of Nathan Astle and the technical aptitude of Crowe himself. The burly Wellingtonian has excelled with the bat at the top and the middle of the order, and addressed his concentration issues by becoming the first New Zealander in thirteen years to hit back to back Test centuries in April 2009. Ryder also offers steady medium pace and surprising agility in the field, making him a versatile asset in all forms of the game. And while it hasn't always been an easy road for Ryder - off the field in particular - at 27 he has a bright future ahead of him, as long as he stays on the straight and narrow and stays injury free.
