Gus Atkinson, a 25-year-old right-arm fast bowler hailing from England, is more formally known as Angus Alexander Patrick Atkinson. However, despite being this age, he had not played his debut match in senior cricket yet wherein much is expected of him through past limited appearances made with it. Therefore, the management of the England side would observe this pace bowler closely.
Indeed, Gus is a fast bowler but he is no pushover with bat either. He averages over 28 runs per innings over 14 First Class matches which is quite respectable for any young fast bowler. When bowling with red cherry in hand, Gus has been able to take 45 wickets in 14 FC games at an impressive average of 26.64.
From his early impressions, he seems to have quick adaptability from red balls to white balls. In 42 T20 matches, Gus has taken 56 wickets with an average of 19.39; this is considered delightful due to the batter-friendly conditions.
Gus has just taken baby steps in his cricketing career. He has been picked in the provisional squad for the upcoming ICC World Cup 2023. For someone who looks at it from the outside, his inclusion comes as a surprise, but to those who know Gus well, he deserves to be there.
