Alex Carey

Alex Carey is the experienced Australian international wicketkeeper-batsman, bringing a wealth of elite-level knowledge and composure to the Adelaide Strikers' middle order. Known for his elegant left-hand batting, Carey often acts as the anchor, possessing the temperament to build an innings and the striking ability to accelerate sharply in the final overs. His dual role as a high-quality gloveman behind the stumps ensures consistency and reliability in the fielding unit.

A former captain for the Strikers, his leadership qualities remain invaluable to the team, providing guidance to younger players and working closely with Matt Short. While his international commitments sometimes limit his BBL availability, when he features, he is a game-changer capable of winning matches single-handedly. Carey’s presence lifts the team's overall performance, offering a proven match-winner who is comfortable absorbing pressure.
