PAUL VAN MEEKEREN

The lone overseas pick for the Glasgow franchise in the ETPL Player Draft was Paul van Meekeren -  proof that cricketing dreams rarely travel in straight lines. As recently as 2020, with the pandemic having frozen the game, the Dutch quick was delivering food for Uber Eats through the cold Netherlands winter — famously tweeting that he "should've been playing cricket." Three years later, he was tearing through South Africa at a fifty-over World Cup. He announced himself on debut by dismissing the great Hashim Amla and produced a match-winning 4 for 11 against Ireland at the 2016 World T20. Hardened by county spells at Somerset, Durham and Gloucestershire, he knows what it takes to topple even a Test nation.
