Steven Croft is an allrounder who made impressive strides during the 2006 season when he was handed a chance in the one-day team. A hard-hitting middle-order batsman, a nippy seam bowler and brilliant in the field he developed from being useful addition to the limited overs team to a key part of the four-day squad as well. In 2008 he took on more responsibility in both forms of cricket and was named the club's Player of the Year. He spends his winters playing cricket in Australia and New Zealand.
