Adam Leonard is a talented bowling all-rounder from New Zealand's capital, Wellington.
A skilful right-arm seamer and hard-hitting middle-order batter, Leonard is at the start of his professional cricketing career. After spending time in the Wellington age-group set up, Leonard has progressed through to Wellington A, and after impressing, finally made his Firebirds first-class debut in October 2022.
Since then the Kiwi has gone to play 3 Plunket Shield matches, whilst also featuring in multiple Firebirds white ball squads.
In club cricket, Leonard turns out for Victoria University, with whom he has been a stand-out performer in recent years. Over the past 2023/24 season, the all-rounder batted in the top-order averaging low-20s with a highest score of 96, and opened the bowling bagging 16 wickets at 21.75.
With ambitions to become a Firebirds regular, Leonard continued his development abroad in 2024. Having signed with Dutch powerhouse HCC for their Topklasse campaign, the seamer picked up an impressive 31 wickets at an average of 15.45, with a best of 4/11.
Now seeking a return to the EU in 2025, no doubt the talented seamer will have plenty of options.
