Gurinder Sandhu's story is one of incredible personal highs and unrelenting persistence.

A member of the NSW and Australian Under-19 teams, Sandhu was awarded a NSW Rookie Contract for the 2012-13 season. Despite playing only four one-day and two Sheffield Shield matches at the backend of that season, his performances were such that he won the Steve Waugh Medal as the NSW Player of the Year in his maiden season.

Sandhu was a regular for Australia A over the following seasons, playing three separate series, and played two ODIs for Australia in January 2015, cap number 206.

However at the end of the 2017-18 season, Sandhu signed with Tasmania, where he would represent the Tigers for two seasons.

His stint down south included taking 7-56 in the JLT Cup, the fourth-best figures in the men's one-day domestic competition, and a hat-trick to boot.

But after being let go by Tasmania at the end of the 2019-20 summer, Sandhu made the move to Brisbane to try and force his way into the Queensland squad, which worked.

The tall paceman took his second one-day hat-trick, and first for the Bulls, in November 2021, and grabbed a KFC BBL hat-trick only two months later with the Sydney Thunder.
