Born in England but raised in Australia. Was offered the chance to play for England A but turned it down to try his luck and make the Australian team. A handy dual-pace bowler and dynamic fieldsman, Symonds is better known as a massive hitter of the ball after hitting a world record 20 sixes, including 16 in one innings, while playing for Gloucestershire in 1995. Yet to play a test but now a regular member of the one-day squad.
