The Falcon Strike
Hall of Famer
So OKeefe - the most prolific domestic spinner is not offered a NSW contract. Presumably to blood some youngster I can only imagine.
Whilst I see the argument for not holding back talent, surely there is also a need to have seasoned cricketers to bowl against opposition batsman learning their craft.
Take Cam Green - surely his development is better facing Okeefe then some spinner who is learning which hand to hold the ball in.
Sure when that seasoned cricketer is fringe anyway - it probably doesn't matter - but at shield level Okeefe is far from fringe.
