Colin Munro - TKR

Evin Lewis - SNP

Rayad Emrit - SNP

The impact that Emrit has on his side has been second to none. 10 wickets to show for his efforts at an average of 14.70 has been the stuff of legend, but unfortunately, that has failed to translate to wins. For the franchise to have any sort of success, .
