Justin Niranjan Casinader (born October 21 1983 in Clayton, Australia), is a Treasurer/Batsman at the St Pauls Cricket Club. Justin is a specialist fieldsman who occasionally bats in the middle order for the St Pauls 1st XI.

Justin has been a member of St Pauls Cricket Clubs since the youngest junior levels, and has made steady progress through, representing the region in Hatch level carnivals on the way, and being an occasionally prolific batsman, as well as an occasionally humourous batsman. While Justin's batting is his forte, he is better known for his batting failures, strong throwing arm, and safe hands.

2004/05

After infamously winning the Hole in the Bat award in two consecutive seasons, Justin set about looking for a three-peat, registering three ducks in his first three innings. His duck was broken with a 30, but there was little other joy as Justin slipped down the order in the 1st XI, before being relegated to the 2nd XI. He found his form with 46 in the last game of the year, and while it was considered a disappointing year, Justin was quoted as saying "I'm drowning in runs! I don't know what to do!"<ref>Not an actual quote - I made it up</ref>

2005/06

After an extremely extensive pre-season, Ephraums returned to St Pauls as a new man. With a streamlined haircut, new lease on cricket, and a new stock ball, the prodigious in-swinger to the right hander. Ephraums provided a genuine bowling option for friend and captain of the 2nd XI D'Souza. D'Souza granted him an opportunity in Round 1 and Ephraums repaid the faith with a three wicket haul.

After a string of solid performances and 1st XI unavailabilities Adam was given an unlikely opportunity of opening the bowling in the 1st XI. He performed admirably while elevated, however finished the year in the 2nd XI.

2006/07

Adam began the year in the 1st XI and shone early, finding consistent top order wickets. He came back with a far less streamlined haircut, seemingly having not touched his body from the neck up since the cricket season prior. While he enjoyed his time in the 1st XI (12 wickets in 7 matches at 20.17), he struggled in the 2nd XI with just 4 wickets in as many matches at 30.75). Regardless, it was still considered an improvement on the year before.

2007/08

2007/08 sealed the year Adam established himself in the 1st XI. He started in the 1st XI, and picked up five wickets in two games. He continued to perform solidly before losing his position in Round 6 due to other commitments. As a result, Adam played out the next two games in the 2nd XI, where he broke through for his first five wicket haul, 5/18 against Trinity. He was elevated back to the ones where he maintained a new ball position and continued to steadily take wickets, ending with a personal record 21 wickets at 13.81 across all grades.
