 Profile

Another part of Western Australia's big-striking middle order, Adam Voges is most famous for his maiden one-day century in 2004-05, a 62-ball effort which was then the fastest in the country's domestic history. Not only did he break a record, he also clattered an ING sign with one of seven sixes. Voges collected many plaudits for the innings and a $50,000 bonus for superb aim, but he was not included in the following Pura Cup match. He returned to the first-class team later in the season to produce his first hundred and finished with an eye-catching double of 362 four-day runs at 72.40 and 287 at 31.88 in the one-day competition.

Backing up with another fine summer, Voges picked up 512 runs in nine Pura Cup games in 2005-06 with a high of 178 against Queensland, and gathered three half-centuries and an average of almost 50 in the ING Cup. His prize was a return to the Academy for a second stint after he captained the team on a development tour to India in 2004. The only blemish was a brief suspension for missing a compulsory training session, but that was forgotten the following season when, in the wake of Damien Martyn's unexpected retirement, he received a call to join Australia's squad for the third Test against England at the WACA. He wasn't needed and waited another two months for his international debut, which came at Hamilton in the Chappell-Hadlee Series. Voges almost didn't get a bat as Matthew Hayden dominated, but rushed to 16 not out off ten balls to finish the innings.
