Powerful English batsman Phil Salt will make his Big Bash debut in BBL|09 as the Adelaide Strikers’ second international signing.
A heavy-hitting right-hander, Salt has played a key role with the Sussex Sharks in the UK’s Vitality Blast series in recent seasons under coach Jason Gillespie and alongside fellow Strikers Rashid Khan and Alex Carey.
Salt was Sussex’s top T20 runscorer this year with 406 runs including four half-centuries, backing up his maiden call-up to England’s T20I squad against Pakistan in May.
Renowned for his aggression at the top of the order and energy in the field, Salt will be looking to make an immediate impact in his first Big Bash season.
