Wes Agar

Wes Agar is a tall, right-arm fast bowler who made a significant move to the Sydney Thunder after spending most of his career with the Adelaide Strikers, including a highly successful BBL|13 season. Known for his high pace, energy, and ability to generate steep bounce, Agar has proven himself as a potent wicket-taker in the powerplay and middle overs across all domestic formats. He is the younger brother of fellow Australian cricketer Ashton Agar, but has forged his own identity as a premier fast-bowling talent.
