Okay, I've done my best.

Be generous it's my first attempt.

I thought I'd give Demonstone a chance to play in one.

There is a small prize in the offing.

There are also no criteria for cricketer's names except they all played in international cricket.

Good luck.

1.A mouse that's not so little.

2. Bowler faster than a gun.

Paul Reiffel.

3. Angel giving jumbled warnings

4.Some money for an English truck.

Bill Lawry.

5. This key can get through state lines.

Allen Border

6. Backward nod to this man as hard as nails.

SIr Don Bradman.

7. Never lost according to his fan(s)

8. Colorful mixed up romance
Cameron Green.
9.This cat never drank.

10. Never ran but made the most.

Tangles.
 

They are a little easier.😁

    3. Jo Angel?

    Too obvious, actually. But he did play Test match cricket in (I think) the early 90s. 
    P.S. are they all Australian?

      Melbourne’s early surge of optimism came crashing back to reality in its clash with Fremantle at Optus Stadium on Saturday night. Just six days after unveiling its fun-filled, attack-minded style against the Saints, the Demons were met by a Dockers outfit determined to shut it down with a blend of speed, pressure, and physicality.
