Spencer Johnson is widely regarded as one of the fastest left-arm pacers in modern cricket.
Since making his international debut in 2023, he has developed a strong reputation as a T20 specialist, featuring in multiple franchise leagues around the world.
Strong Record Against Pakistan
Johnson grabbed global attention during Australia’s T20 series against Pakistan in November 2024, where he picked up eight wickets in three matches.
His performances highlighted his ability to deliver breakthroughs at crucial stages.
Comeback After Injury Setback
The Australian quick later suffered a back stress fracture, which ruled him out of the entire 2025–26 Big Bash League season with Brisbane Heat and also kept him out of Australia’s T20 World Cup 2026 squad.
Before the injury, Johnson played a key role in Brisbane Heat’s 2024 BBL title-winning campaign and was named Player of the Final.
Now fully fit, he is set to return to competitive cricket through the PSL.

With Johnson’s arrival, Quetta Gladiators’ bowling lineup now includes:

The franchise hopes this combination will provide extra pace, variety, and depth ahead of PSL 11.
Final Thoughts
