Chris Tremlett Players Stats

When you think about this giant-sized bowler from England, the first thing that comes to mind is not wickets but unfortunately, injuries. An impressive seamer who hails from a family lineage that is rooted in cricket, Tremlett’s career has been fizzling out in recent times as he has failed to deliver to the potential he once displayed.

The speedster from Hampshire made a name for himself by using his height; hitting the deck hard and getting a lot of bounce out of most surfaces. A product of England’s National Academy, Tremlett made his first-class debut against New Zealand A in 2000 and impressed straight away by picking up a wicket off the first ball and ending with figures of 4 for 16. After 5 years of hard work at the domestic arena which lead to a string of impressive performances for his county, the pace bowler made his ODI debut for England in 2005 and got close to taking a hat-trick against Bangladesh. Tremlett earned a place in the tour to Pakistan later in the same year but a hamstring injury spoilt his chances of making it. He had to wait until 2007 to make his Test debut which came against India. The tour turned out to be a success for England but a disaster for the bowler as he ended it with a back injury. Tremlett finally made his way back into national reckoning after three long years for the 2010 Ashes tour and immediately impressed.
