Scott Styris

Born on July 10th, 1975 in Brisbane, Australia, Scott Styris is the quintessential all-rounder any team would love to have in their team. He was one amongst the clutch of all-round talent that New Zealand could boast of during the early part of the decade.

Originally a seam bowler, a knee injury forced him into taking his batting seriously and he converted from a bowling all-rounder into a batting one. Styris made his first class debut in the 1994/95 season. His all-round abilities was not to go unnoticed as he made his ODI debut against India in 1999. His batting and useful seam option made him a regular in the team.
