Profile

Stephen O'Keefe, an allrounder from the Hawkesbury club, made both his Pura and ING Cup debuts in 2005-06. A left-arm orthodox spinner, he earned two wickets on first-class entry against Tasmania and finally played in the one-day side after his initial selection the previous summer ended in a washout. Another four FR Cup matches came in 2007-08, along with two breakthroughs, and he impressed on the grade scene with 36 victims at 18.19. There were seven FR Cup appearances last summer, with six useful wickets and 75 runs, while he also played his first three Twenty20 contests. An Australia Under-19 representative in 2003-04, O'Keefe has won the Rising Star Award for New South Wales and will battle with the Blues' growing batch of spinners for future action.
