 Profile

After playing every other match in Tasmania's successful Pura Cup campaign, Brendan Drew was desperately unlucky to be relegated to 12th man for the final victory against New South Wales. The more experienced Adam Griffith returned from injury and Drew had to settle for 26 wickets at 41.23 and second place on the state's tally for 2006-07. A right-arm fast-medium bowler with a run-up and action clearly styled on Glenn McGrath, Drew is being monitored by the Australian selectors who invited him to the Academy in 2007 and named him in Australia's 30-man preliminary squad for the Twenty20 World Championship. His two best efforts for Tasmania came in consecutive matches at Hobart mid-season. Against Western Australia, he claimed 6 for 94 and together with Ben Hilfenhaus almost rescued the Tigers after they were dismissed for 94, and he collected 5 for 30 in a comfortable win over Queensland. He was used in three one-day games but the first-class arena was where he shone most after moving from Sydney during 2005-06. That season he compiled 20 wickets at 31.6 from six Pura Cup matches and picked up a Man-of-the-Match award against Victoria.
