My Take
What I respect about James Faulkner is that he built a career on usefulness rather than glamour. A genuine all-rounder is rare, and being trusted to bowl at the death of limited-overs innings means a captain hands you the most nerve-wracking overs in the game. That is a quiet vote of confidence you cannot fake. His aggressive middle-order batting added a second string most players never develop. I also like that after his international run with Australia he kept turning out for Tasmania at home. There is something honest about a player who stays loyal to the domestic grind long after the spotlight has moved elsewhere.
