    About Leask

    Some cricketers accumulate; Michael Leask detonates. The Aberdeen all-rounder is one of the cleanest strikers in the European game, a reputation forged in 2014, when he smashed 42 from just 16 balls against England, five of them soaring over the rope. For some time, he held the fifth-highest strike rate in ODI history among batters with a thousand runs — behind only Andre Russell, Glenn Maxwell, Jos Buttler and Shahid Afridi — and he remains the only Scot to complete the ODI double of 1,000 runs and 50 wickets. His unbeaten 91 to nearly steal an almost unwinnable chase against Ireland at the 2023 World Cup Qualifier summed him up: fearless, inventive, and capable of turning a match on its head.

    Michael represents Glasgow Cosmic in the European T20 Premier League. Originally from Scotland, Michael brings international experience and flair to every match.

    With a career batting average of 14.98 and a strike rate of 128.76, Michael has been one of the most consistent run-scorers in the competition, accumulating 1034 runs.

    As a bowler, Michael has claimed 63 wickets at an average of 21.55 with best figures of 4/17.
