Zak Crawley Profile
Zak Crawley, born on February 3, 1998, in Kent, is a promising right-handed batsman who has made his mark in the English cricketing circuit. Initially starting as a middle-order batsman for Kent in 2018, Crawley quickly transitioned to opening the batting. His impressive performance during the 2018-19 County season, where he was Kent’s leading run-scorer, earned him a spot in the England team for their tour of New Zealand in late 2019. While he made his debut on that tour, it was his monumental innings of 267 against Pakistan at Southampton that truly announced his arrival on the international stage. With a penchant for playing the ball late and a strong back-foot game, Crawley has shown the potential to be a mainstay in the England Test lineup. Under the leadership of Ben Stokes and the coaching of Brendon McCullum, Crawley has adapted and thrived, providing England with quick starts and solidifying his position in the team.
