Possessing one of Big Bash's most outstanding records, Tye has played 105 BBL matches and taken over 150 wickets, making him one of the league's leading death-over specialists. Im genuinely excited about this move its a great bunch of fellas with serious talent and Im looking forward to cracking in, Tye said. The Renegades play a great brand of cricket and the direction the club is heading under Whitey (Cameron White) really appeals to me. The chats Ive had with the coaching staff were clear they know how they want to play and where I fit. Ive always prided myself on competing and taking ownership of big moments, and Im looking forward to contributing to this group. Tye will reunite with familiar faces at the Renegades, including former Perth Scorchers teammate Jason Behrendorff, who joined the club earlier this year.
