The son of former Australian coach Tim, Harry Nielsen is a gifted wicketkeeper-batsman who can clear the rope with ease.
Nielsen was added to the Strikers’ KFC BBL|08 roster as a replacement player for captain Travis Head after making his Big Bash debut in the semi-final of BBL|07, again as a replacement player for fellow South Australian ‘keeper Alex Carey.
Clean and sharp behind the stumps, Nielsen showcased his class with the bat by crafting a sparkling century in his first-class debut for South Australia against Victoria in early 2018.
His unbeaten knock of 44* in the club’s final Big Bash match of BBL|08 against the Scorchers is a promising sign of things to come from the talented youngster.
