"It seems a sadly repetitive tale but Chad is another of Middlesex’s players whose career has been blighted by injury. An immensely talented cricket with potential in all disciplines in the game, it is three seasons now since we saw a truly fit Chad terrorising batsmen around the country. The signs are good now though. 2006 was a necessarily curtailed season for Chad as the club sought to bring him back carefully from his back operation. This careful treatment will surely pay dividends in 2007 as hopefully Chad finds full-fitness and his old form.
At his best, Chad is a hostile bowler, bowling at a devilish pace and able to move the ball both ways. This makes him a match winning prospect in both forms of the game. His batting shows far more promise that current results suggest and his value as a pinch hitter in one-day cricket may be seen this season.
It will be marvellous to see Chad back at his best as there are few more charismatic players on the circuit. Middlesex fans can expect a treat this year."
