    Intro

    'Obi' arrives at the Renegades fresh from a stint with the Adelaide Strikers in BBL|01 where he boasted an economy rate of less than 6.5 runs per over.

    The left-arm orthodox spinner will look to cause headaches with fellow tweaker Muttiah Muralitharan when the pair bowls in tandem at Etihad Stadium throughout the summer.

    Obi is a massive NRL Canterbury Bulldogs fan. He recently became a Dad for the first time and is proud as punch about little Lily Jade.

    According to Obi, the song that best describes him is Powderfinger’s, “My Kind of Scene”. Perhaps he played this song a lot in his first ever car, a Holden Camira but it would have had to been on tape! You can find this left arm off spinning all-rounder on Twitter @obi_11.

    "Crafty left-arm orthodox spinner who can score at a good clip down the order" Simon Helmot, Melbourne Renegades Head Coach
