The year 2023 has been remembered for the Netherlands team. Being a new member of the tournament, the team played exceptionally well. The Netherlands skipper Scott Edwards led the team front. But in 2024, a new beginning is waiting for the Netherlands skipper. He is on his way to join BBL for Melbourne Renegades for the next two matches. That is an interesting milestone in his career.
New Beginning of Scott Edwards:
In the World Cup 2023, Scott Edwards has done amazing captaincy. In several matches, he played match-winning knocks. But a new beginning was waiting for him in 2024. Australia’s T20 league Big Bash League is going on with full glory. The Netherlands skipper Scott Edwards is set to play the league for Melbourne Renegades as the replacement for Joe Clarke.
The Netherlands skipper is currently in South Africa on a training tour. The team is scheduled to play five matches before the start of the tournament. But the BBL joining for the skipper happened in the mid-way. Scott Edwards also holds Australian citizenship. He will be available for the final two matches of Melbourne Renegades.
Scott Edwards as the Replacement:
Quinton de Kock was a part of Melbourne Renegades in the Big Bash League. Now the South African wicketkeeper-batter will fly back to his country to take part in SA20. He will depart after the clash against Hobart Hurricanes. The franchise didn’t have a local wicketkeeper. They opted for the Netherlands batter.
Scott Edwards grabbed the spotlight from the global stage. He contributed to the team with both bat and the ball. After that, he didn’t get any chance to play BBL after that. He was playing club cricket in Melbourne before heading to South Africa with the Netherlands. The Dutch skipper will travel to Australia to play the two matches in BBL. The matches are scheduled to happen on January 13 and 17.
