Luis Reece - England - Batting Allrounder

A T20 specialist, Reece is an explosive all-rounder hailing from Taunton. A bits-and-pieces cricketer, he joined Lancashire academy as a 17-year old and his growth was rapid so much so that he was elevated to the club side after his lethal spell of 7 for 21 in a three-day friendly against Sussex in 2012.

He also earned attention when he was included in the MCC team for a champion county match in 2014 at Abu Dhabi. A recipient of the Ýoung cricketer of the year award for his club, Reece lost his Midas touch when he suffered a knee injury.

Dip in form and a slew of controversies followed in the next season which saw Lancashire release the youngster. In 2016, he signed a contract with Derbyshire and enjoyed a successful run; In the 2017 BPL draft, he was picked up by the Chittagong Kings.
