Michael Bates is a highly-rated wicketkeeper who was given the chance to cement a first team place with Hampshire when Nic Pothas retired at the end of the 2011 season and James Foster, Essex's former-England keeper-batsman, rejected an approach to change counties. While most judges drool over Bates' glove-work, doubts have been raised about his run-scoring ability and his biggest challenge appears to be in front of the stumps.
