Profile:

Since starting playing for HCC at 11 year I was drafted into the 3rd X1 as the strike bowler. I have progressed into the premier strike bowler of the club opening the bowling from the Lewy football Ground End. I have recently cut my run up down as my idol Mike Baxendale takes wickets for fun off a short run and I have had good success. Also I was blamed for the 1st X1 having a slow over rate, so with a short run an a aero dynamic receding hair line the over rate has increased.

The social aspect of HCC is a essential part of my cricketing enjoyment. I have now matured from being the local bulldog puller at the local pub to a HCC member upholding the standards of the cricket club. I am also the resident rabbit of the 1st X1 however I feel annoyed when muppets like Gravesy and A. Welsh, and especially the lumberjack are drafted in and bat in front of me. On my day I have the best cover drive in the club. I am also a specialist fine leg fielder and there is never a two to my bag. I am also known for spitting my dummy and kicking my beloved bumble bee back to fine leg.

Oh and by the way I am now doing a management course at MacDonald's so I may not be flipping burgers for to long now. Apart from that I am still under the thumb and intend to be for the rest of my life. Enjoy your cricket and if you ever fancy a beer its my round.
