A dynamic strokemaker who generally loves to dominate the bowling from the outset, George Munsey is a natural opener for white-ball cricket. The left-handed batsman has a high-risk approach and when on song, can be damaging in the Powerplay, especially in the shortest format of the game. Like many other players in the Scotland set up, Munsey has also had a rich amount of experience from English county cricket, having spent a considerable amount of time at Northamptonshire. In a Scotland batting line-up that's largely orthodox in their approach even while attacking, Munsey comes across as a breath of fresh air with his unconventional brand of strokeplay. It was on display in 2019 when he smashed the second-fastest T20I ton at the time, against a hapless Netherlands attack. Munsey has played only a handful of First-class games, albeit with impressive numbers but has been touted as a limited-overs specialist due to his nature of gameplay.
