Uncle fester look-alike Daniel can be something of a maverick. Can look completely uninterested in the field before demanding a bowl out of the blue. Often has his own opinions on a game, the team and the tactics being used but, that being said, he is a good club man with the success of the team at heart and a desire to do well.
Another solid season from Groomy, saw him go past 500 runs again in 2015 despite the team's overall struggles. Capable of scoring quickly once set with a good selection of shots, he is willing to work hard initially to establish himself at the crease and build an innings. This could prove vital in a batting line-up packed full of stroke-makers.
