Jordan Clark grabbed headlines in April 2013 when he became England’s first professional cricketer to smash six sixes in an over. He was playing for Lancashire’s second XI and Yorkshire’s Gurman Randhawa had to face his wrath. Born in Cumbria, Clark is a big hitter and a more-than-decent seam bowler. Clark showcased his skills with the ball in a T20 Blast quarterfinal encounter in 2014. When Glamorgan were cruising towards a win in a run-chase, the right-arm seamer changed the complexion of the game in an over with a triple-wicket maiden. He ended up with figures reading 4/22, which fetched him the Man of the Match Award and a spot in the semifinal for his side. An academy member since 2008, Clark made his one-day and Twenty20 debuts for Lancashire in 2010 and 2011 respectively. A regular member in the shorter formats, he had to wait till 2015 to make an appearance in the first-class arena. In his debut season, Clark scored 419 runs in 12 Championship matches as a middle-order batsman and scalped 19 wickets. He was an integral member of the Lancashire set-up that won the T20 Blast in 2015.
