That rare thing, an English wrist spinner, Tom Craddock impressed Essex after playing against them for the Unicorns in 2011. A few weeks later, Craddock made his first-class debut against the touring Sri Lankans and, after a two-month trial, he was offered a full contract. He is a product of Leeds/Bradford MCCU, and his wicket-taking contributions for Essex have been steady. But an inability to contribute with the bat has meant Craddock has become more accustomed to second eleven cricket than he would like. Yet his potential is clear, and in the 2012-13 winter he was invited to train in Victoria, including with the Melbourne Stars.
