After an underwhelming BBL season in 2018, Melbourne Stars have bolstered their bowling lineup with the addition of left-arm bowler Joel Paris from Western Australia.

 

Having previously represented both the Perth Scorchers and Hobart Hurricanes, Paris is on the brink of joining his third BBL team. His performance at the Sheffield Shield level for Western Australia has been remarkable, playing a crucial role in their consecutive Shield victories and earning him a place in the Australia A four-day cricket team.

 

Despite a career spanning 10 seasons and 37 BBL games, Paris has remained a peripheral figure in T20 cricket. His participation was limited, featuring in just 25 matches for the Perth Scorchers between 2013 and 2020, primarily due to three injury-ridden seasons. Often kept in reserve as a backup to Jason Behrendorff, the Scorchers carefully managed his workload to preserve his fitness for red-ball duties with Western Australia.

 

In 2021, he made the move to the Hobart Hurricanes in search of more T20 opportunities. However, he only managed to participate in a total of 12 matches spread across two seasons. Notably, his standout performance came under swinging conditions at the Gabba last season, where he claimed figures of 2 for 15 from four overs, including an impressive tally of 13 dot balls.

 

The Stars had previously picked international left-arm pacers Trent Boult and Luke Wood in the draft. With uncertainty around their availability, the team might have to utilize a top pick in the international draft to secure a potent spinner. Following Adam Zampa’s departure, the Stars seized the chance to fortify their squad by enlisting Paris, along with Australia Test bowler Scott Boland.
