Northampton red-ball captain, Adam Rossington is a prolific wicket-keeper batsman who has shown promise at a very young age on the international stages. It’s not just with the bat where Rossington has excelled. Behind the stumps, he has proved to be a fine gloveman with over 250 career dismissals across all forms of the game. A Middlesex product, Rossington fitted straight into Northamptonshire in 2014 and became a vital part of the team in a couple of years. Impressive with both bat and gloves, he earned a full-time contract with the club and was part of the team which reached the T20 Vitality Blast finals in 2015 and 2016. Rossington boasts a first-class batting average of 35.33 while scoring his runs in T20 cricket at a strike-rate of 139.2. He initially took over as the club’s four-day skipper midway through the 2019 season, with Northamptonshire at the time struggling in the County Championship’s second tier. By the end of the campaign, he led the side to a surprise promotion to the first division. Immensely talented, Rossington has a lot of influence in county cricket. Yet to represent his country, he would be hoping to crack into the highly competitive England team in the upcoming years. (As of July 2021)
