Player Story
Daniel Sams reaffirmed his commitment to the Thunder Nation prior to BBL|10 signing a three-year contract extension that will see him remain at the club until the end of BBL|12.
In his first two seasons with the Thunder, the left-arm quick took 45 wickets at the outstanding average of 17.26, including 30 in BBL|09 at 15 runs per wicket.
His performances throughout BBL|09 saw him receive the Michael Hussey Medal as Thunder’s Player of the Tournament and later earned him selection in a 21-man Australian One-Day and T20 squad to tour England.
His 30 wickets in BBL|09 set a new record for most wickets in a single Men’s Big Bash season.
Sams also signed with the Delhi Capitals in the Indian Premier League.
