Abu Dhabi T10: Even though he has not got a chance yet in his country. He is a treasure trove of talent, but he has not yet got a chance to show his strength on the international front. Seeing his talent, an attempt was also made to break him. The team of another country made him an open offer. But instead of taking that offer, he preferred to reject it. You must be wondering which cricketer we are talking about here. So this player is Tom Kohler Cadmore. This wicketkeeper batsman of England is again in the news for his unmatched innings in the Abu Dhabi T10 League.

Cadmore's wonder in 29 balls

The blast that Tom Kohler Cadmore made while playing his first match and first innings in the current season of the Abu Dhabi T10 League has been heard very loudly. Tom Kohler Cadmore, a player playing for Deccan Gladiators in the league, had an inning of 29 balls against UAE Bulls. Cadmore, who came to open, remained unbeaten on these 29 balls. But what he did on those 29 balls was amazing.

13 out of 29 balls were hit out of the field!

Deccan Gladiators came to bat first against UAE Bulls. Tom Kohler came out to open and remained unbeaten till the end and scored unbeaten 78 runs in just 29 balls. Kohler's innings, played at a strike rate of 268.96, was such that he hit 13 out of 29 balls outside the boundary. He did this by hitting 6 fours and 7 sixes in his innings.

Gave great victory to the team

Thanks to this inning of Cadmore, Deccan Gladiators, playing first, scored 141 runs for 2 wickets in 10 overs. In reply, UAE Bulls could score only 135 runs for 5 wickets in 10 overs. The result was that Deccan Gladiators won the match by 6 runs and Tom Kohler Cadmore was elected the hero of that victory i.e. Player of the Match.

Rejected the offer to play from this country

England's wicketkeeper batsman Tom Kohler Cadmore, who did wonders in the Abu Dhabi T10 League, was offered by Germany to play for them. This offer was given to Tom in reference to his elder brother Ben. Actually, his mother is German. And on the same lines, his elder brother took citizenship of Germany last year and started playing cricket from there. After the same decision of the elder brother, the Germany Cricket Board also tried to include the younger brother Tom, which failed. Despite giving many amazing performances, Tom Kohler has not yet made his debut for England.
