Another left hander in the tradition of Australian cricket, Justin Langer lends a lot of depth to the batting line up with his consistent performance.

If it's his day, he can demolish any given bowling attack. Langer can also bowl right arm medium pace occasionally may be to break up troublesome partnerships.
