“Who’s Ed Pollock?” opposing fans were asking in when the youngster was pitched into the Bears T20 team from apparently nowhere to open the batting. They soon found out.
Polly blazed to prominence with some sensational displays of clean-hitting.
“The club has an amazing history and has enjoyed a huge amount of success. There’s a great opportunity for this squad to push for more silverware in the coming seasons and I’m thrilled to be part of it.”
Given his chance at the top of the order, the 22-year-old responded by smashing 293 runs at a blistering strike-rate of 174.69 in his first season.
It was a sensational start for the former Durham MCCU, Unicorns and Herefordshire batsman which he has carried on in the subsequent two seasons.
Now he just wants to keep building on his white-ball prowess – and also make his entry into championship cricket. The Bears fans are loving the thought of Polly freeing up again this year!
