Strikers described it as “a difficult decision” after veteran middle-order player was their leading scorer last season
“This is a difficult decision, however with the uncertain nature of overseas player recruitment in the current landscape, the depth of young talent and a need to consistently evolve as a team, the Strikers remain committed to doing everything possible to build a team contending for titles,” a Strikers statement said.
Strikers coach Jason Gillespie paid tribute to Wells. “Wellsy is a brilliant cricketer and I cannot speak highly enough of what he has brought to the Strikers in his time here,” he said. “You know when he walks to the middle that he will give everything for the team, and more often than not he delivers exactly what is required.
“We thank Wellsy for always being that calm head for us, and for being a leader both on and off the field. I know Wellsy will continue to succeed at any challenge thrown his way.”
