First impressions count, they say, and the one left by Adam on his Bears debut in 2017 will live long in the memory.
After joining from Somerset mid-season he made his bow in a T20 against Lancashire Lightning at Edgbaston and thrilled the crowd with a stunning 76 from 43 balls.
“Ever since my very first game for the Bears I have felt really at home. There is a great spirit here and I am just proud to be part of the squad.”
On debut, one of his sixes landed in the top-deck of the pavilion – that’s one tall pavilion so that’s one mighty hit! “Probably the best debut I’ve ever seen from a Warwickshire player,” commented Bears legend Ian Bell.
Isle of Wight-born Adam at first found his chances in championship cricket limited by the productivity of a top-order led by Ian Bell and Jonathan Trott, but ‘Hosey’ has the makings of a main man in the Bears’ batting unit across the format for seasons to come.
